Overview

Amazon's Build International Listings (BIL) tool allows sellers to connect their source marketplace to one or more target marketplaces, automatically synchronizing offers and pricing across borders. However, there are times when sellers need to remove a connection — whether they're exiting a market, restructuring their international strategy, or consolidating operations. Understanding the disconnection process and its consequences is essential to avoid unintended inventory or listing issues.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Disconnecting is marketplace-specific — You remove connections one target marketplace at a time, not all at once, giving you granular control over your international presence.
• You must choose what happens to existing offers — When disconnecting, Amazon requires you to decide whether to keep or delete the offers that were synced to the target marketplace.
• Kept offers lose automatic price sync — If you choose to retain offers in the disconnected marketplace, their prices will no longer update automatically based on your source marketplace. You become responsible for managing them manually.
• Deleted offers take up to four hours to remove — Offer deletion is not instant. Only offers connected through BIL will be removed; any independently created offers in that marketplace remain untouched.
• Deletion is irreversible — Once you confirm the deletion of offers in a target marketplace, the action cannot be undone. Sellers should be certain before proceeding.
• FBA offers may not be deleted — Even if you choose to delete offers, Amazon may keep certain FBA listings active to prevent inventory from being stranded.

How to Remove a Connection

To disconnect a target marketplace, navigate to the Build International Listings tool within Seller Central. On the left-hand side of the page, select the target marketplace you wish to disconnect. Look for the disconnect or remove link within the marketplace settings widget. A pop-up window will appear asking whether you want to keep or delete your offers in the target marketplace after the connection is removed. Make your selection carefully, then confirm your choice. The system will process the disconnection, though offer deletions may take up to four hours to fully take effect across the marketplace.
