How to open a second seller account? Multiple seller accounts are prohibited by Amazon’s selling policies. However, if you have a legitimate business reason, you can open a second account, but it must be kept separate.

The Correct Way to Open Multiple Amazon Seller Accounts
To open a second Amazon seller account, you must have a legitimate business reason. Whether or not the reason you give is legitimate is up to Amazon in its own discretion. If you have a legitimate business reason for a multiple seller account, then you must also follow these steps to the letter...

• You must have a separate bank account for each Seller Central account. Amazon will not approve multiple seller accounts that use the same bank account within the same region.​
• Each seller account must have a separate email address.
• The products and services sold in each account must be different.
• Your Performance Metrics and your account must be in good standing.

How to Open a Second Amazon Seller Account?

​

You must have a legitimate business reason which usually means you have a separate business which sells completely separate and different types of product lines. Amazon will still suspend accounts for being related, so it is recommended that you follow these best practices in opening your second account to avoid an instant suspension:

Separate business entities with different owners

Separate IP addresses

Separate Credit Cards

Separate Email Addresses

Separate Telephones

Separate physical addresses

Separate points of contact

Separate EINs

Separate Management

Separate employees

Separate domains and separate domain hosts

Separate warehouses

Separate product lines

There must be no crossover whatsoever between the two accounts.
