Amazon restock limits

Caps on how much inventory you can send into FBA.

Definition

Amazon restock (storage) limits restrict how many units or cubic usage you can send into FBA by storage type. Limits change with capacity, IPI and season. A replenishment plan that ignores them creates blocked inbounds.

Worked example

You want to send 2,000 units but the restock limit allows 600 more. Ship 600 now, hold the rest in your 3PL, and create the next inbound when capacity frees.

Why it matters for replenishment

Limits turn “order more” into a two-stage problem: buy into your warehouse, then drip-feed FBA.

How OmniRestock uses this

OmniRestock’s FBA restock planning is built to respect capacity-aware transfers from your own warehouse into FBA rather than assuming unlimited inbound.

Common questions

Are limits per SKU or account?

They are typically by storage type / ASIN policies inside the account — check Seller Central for the current model.

Do limits include in-transit?

Often usage includes inventory at Amazon plus inbound. Confirm on the restock limits page.

What if a PO arrives bigger than the limit?

Receive into your own warehouse first, then transfer in allowed waves.

Is Amazon restock limits the same everywhere?

The idea is shared, but formulas and marketplace rules differ. Use the definition on this page for ecommerce replenishment.

Do I need software to track Amazon restock limits?

A spreadsheet works for a few SKUs. Once you have many suppliers or channels, a replenishment tool keeps the numbers current.

Does OmniRestock change my live stock?

Not unless you switch Stock write or Purchase orders on for a connection. Drafts stay drafts until you confirm.
