A process exists on a major e-commerce platform that allows sellers to list products without a Global Trade Item Number (GTIN). This is known as acquiring an exemption. For example, a seller who manufactures unique, handmade goods might seek this exception if their items lack standardized identification numbers.
Securing this allowance is critical for individuals or businesses offering products that don’t conform to standard identification systems. It streamlines the listing process, enabling sellers to access a wider marketplace. Historically, sellers faced significant hurdles listing non-standardized goods, limiting their potential reach. This exemption mechanism provides a route to overcome those previous limitations.
