📸Photos You Need

Amazon sometimes asks for photos to support your invoice. These photos help confirm that the items you ordered are real and that the invoice reflects a genuine purchase. Photos are not always required, but they are very effective for new sellers and anyone who has already received a decline.


When Photos Are Needed

Photos become important in situations such as:

  • Your account is new with limited sales history.

  • You have been declined once already.

  • Your invoice comes from a retailer that looks more consumer focused.

  • Amazon wants extra proof that the items exist.

Uploading photos increases your approval rate and removes doubt for the reviewer.


The 3 Photos Amazon Likes To See

Amazon does not officially list a required photo set, but these 3 types consistently work and create a complete evidence package.

1. A photo of the products you purchased

This should show:

  • All items together.

  • The brand name clearly visible.

  • The correct quantity that matches your invoice.

This photo proves that you physically received the products listed.

2. A photo of the packaging

Show the delivery box or parcel that the items arrived in. Amazon uses this to confirm that the order was delivered to you and not sourced incorrectly.

Include the shipping label if possible.

3. A photo of the printed invoice

Print the invoice and take a clear photo. This helps Amazon confirm that the invoice is real and not digitally altered.

Make sure the photo shows:

  • Your name and address.

  • The supplier information.

  • The products and quantities.

  • The invoice date.

These 3 photos give Amazon everything they need to verify the order.


How To Take The Photos Correctly

For best results:

  • Use natural lighting or a well lit room.

  • Place items on a clean surface.

  • Make sure all text is readable.

  • Avoid shadows or reflections.

  • Do not crop out important information.

Amazon only needs clarity and proof. The photos do not need to be perfect.
