f you're an Amazon FBA seller in the UAE, here's some exciting news: you can now sell your products in Saudi Arabia without opening a warehouse or registering a company there — thanks to Amazon’s Remote Fulfillment program.

In this blog post, we’ll walk you through exactly what Remote Fulfillment is, how it works, who can use it, and how to activate it in just a few simple steps.

🚀 What Is Amazon Remote Fulfillment?

Remote Fulfillment is a new feature that allows Amazon to automatically ship your UAE FBA inventory directly to customers in Saudi Arabia — but only when a customer places an order.

That means:

✅ No warehouse setup in Saudi Arabia
✅ No need for separate FBA shipments to KSA
✅ No monthly storage costs in Saudi
✅ Amazon takes care of cross-border shipping and customs

This makes it the easiest way to expand into the Saudi market without a full launch.

🧾 Who Can Use Remote Fulfillment?

You’re eligible to use this feature if:

You already sell on Amazon.ae using FBA
You have a Professional Selling account
Your products are eligible for FBA Export
You’ve activated Remote Fulfillment settings in Seller Central

💡 Pro Tip: Some product types like hazmat or oversized items might not qualify, so check eligibility first.

🛠️ How to Activate Remote Fulfillment (Step-by-Step)

Here’s how to enable Remote Fulfillment in your Amazon UAE account:

Step 1: Log into Seller Central UAE
Go to: Settings > Fulfillment by Amazon

Step 2: Find the Remote Fulfillment section
Look for “Cross-Border Fulfillment” or “Remote Fulfillment Settings”

Step 3: Enroll Your Products
Choose to enroll all eligible FBA products or select SKUs manually.

Step 4: Confirm Product Eligibility
Some products may be excluded due to size, category, or restrictions.

Step 5: Track Your Saudi Orders
Amazon will show when a product is sold in KSA — and handle delivery for you.

💰 What About Fees & Shipping?

There is a cross-border fee applied to each sale, which is slightly higher than regular UAE FBA fees — but:

You won’t pay for storage or fulfillment in KSA
You can set different prices for your Saudi listings
Amazon handles customs, shipping, and delivery

All fees are clearly listed inside your Remote Fulfillment fee schedule in Seller Central.

⚖️ Is Remote Fulfillment Right for You?

✅ Ideal if:

You want to test the Saudi market
You’re not ready to register a KSA business
You want to avoid high logistics and warehousing costs

❌ Not ideal if:

Your product has tight profit margins
You already have local inventory in KSA
You sell heavy, oversized, or slow-moving items
