What Is Product Liability Insurance for Amazon Sellers?
Amazon seller insurance is a type of product business insurance built to protect sellers from claims and lawsuits arising from the products they sell and keep them compliant with Amazon’s insurance requirements.
Once your store earns $10,000 or more in a one-month period, Amazon requires you to carry product liability insurance. Insurance Canopy offers coverage in a single, simple policy that helps you fulfill these Amazon seller insurance requirements (which, when ignored, are the most common reasons Certificates of Insurance (COIs) are denied by Amazon). Amazon’s requirements for sellers include:
- Minimum $1 million per occurrence and $1 million aggregate policy limits
- Include general liability, product liability, and occurrence form coverage
- Be issued by an insurance provider rated A- or better
- List “Amazon.com Services LLC., and its affiliates and assignees” as an additional insured on your policy
- Deductibles cannot exceed $10,000, and all deductibles must be listed on your policy documents
- The insured name on your policy must match the legal entity name you provide to Amazon
- The insurance provider must give Amazon at least a 30-day notice for any cancellation, modification, or nonrenewal of your policy
- Policy must be valid for at least 60 days from the date of submission, signed by you, and completed in its entirety
With these requirements in mind, every Insurance Canopy Amazon liability insurance policy is designed to fit your operation, whether you resell, dropship, private label, or manufacture your products.
Who Needs Amazon Seller Insurance?
You need Amazon business insurance if you’re selling physical products on Amazon, especially if you’re hitting $10,000 per month or more in sales. Specific types of sellers who should consider online retailer insurance include:
- Amazon Handmade Sellers
- FBA (Fulfilled by Amazon) & FBM (Fulfilled by Merchant) Stores
- Ecommerce Businesses
- White-Label Sellers
- Private-Label Product Sellers
- Product Manufacturers
- Indie Brands
- Third-Party Fulfillment Centers
- Multi-Marketplace Sellers (including Etsy, eBay, and Shopify)
Dig deeper: Our guide to Amazon insurance requirements details common product liability risks online sellers face and why Amazon requires proof of insurance.
Why Do Amazon Sellers Need Insurance?
Amazon may host your storefront, but you’re still responsible for what you sell. Carrying the right liability insurance can help prevent a claim from becoming a crisis.
To protect themselves and their customers, Amazon requires you to carry product liability insurance if you reach $10,000 in gross sales during a one-month period. Once you reach that threshold, you have 30 days to secure insurance that fulfills Amazon’s terms.
Amazon seller insurance from Insurance Canopy was designed with Amazon’s requirements in mind, so you can quickly and easily provide proof of insurance and stay open for business. Each policy is tailored to your specific needs, and custom quotes typically arrive within 24 hours.
Did You Know? Accidents happen! If a product you sell causes harm, you could still be sued, even if it wasn’t your fault. Amazon seller liability insurance is designed to help cover these claims.
How Much Does Amazon Seller Insurance Cost?
Most sellers pay an average of $116/month or less for Amazon seller insurance from Insurance Canopy.
The price of your Amazon seller liability insurance depends on a few key factors:
- Revenue: Higher monthly sales can increase your risks and premiums
- Product type: Riskier categories (like supplements, tools, or electronics) may cost more to insure
- Claims history: Previous product issues or lawsuits can raise your premium
- Desired coverage limits: Like any upgrade, increasing limits or adding extra coverage comes with additional costs
- Fulfillment method: FBA, FBM, and third-party warehousing all affect your liability
Every policy is personalized to your unique business, so you only pay for the coverage you actually need.

I needed a portable policy as a yoga instructor. I found this company in an online search. Called and got details from them, was quite surprised at how affordable... Read More it would be. Then when I was ready to make my purchase, I called again. Was explained to me that everything was done online, I told the lady on the phone I didn't want to make this kind of purchase online with no guidance. She was so helpful and kind and patient! Walked me thru every page of the form and honestly didn't take long at all. Hope I never need to use the policy but nice to know I have it.

Looking for extra protection? Our licensed agents can help you customize your plan with higher limits and add-on coverages tailored to your business model.
Included
General Liability Insurance
General liability insurance is built to cover third-party injury or damage claims that are not directly caused by your products, like if someone trips in your booth at a craft fair. It also helps with legal costs if you’re ever accused of advertising injury, like copyright infringement.
Products & Completed Operations Insurance
Product liability insurance is designed to protect you from claims related to the products you sell, even if you use factory-made or vintage components. If a customer claims damages caused by something you sold, this coverage can help pay for legal defense, medical bills, and settlements.
Recommended Optional Add-On Coverages
- Product recall insurance: Helps you act fast if something needs to be pulled from the market
- Commercial property insurance: Can protect the space and tools you rely on for operations
- Workers compensation insurance: Designed to cover medical bills, lost wages, and recovery costs if someone’s hurt on the job — legally required in most states if your business has employees, even if they’re part-time

- Cyber liability insurance: Helps cover the fallout from cyberattacks and data breaches
- Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance: Can protect your business if a product recommendation, advice, or service mistake costs a client money
- Amendment of Coverage Territory endorsement: Can extend coverage worldwide for claims outside the U.S., which helps if your products sell internationally or reach overseas customers
- Primary & non-contributory endorsement: Ensures your policy pays first on a claim, before anyone else’s — often required when other businesses want your coverage to apply before theirs
- Waiver of subrogation: Commonly requested to keep business relationships smooth, it stops your insurer from pursuing a third party to recover claim costs
- 30-Day cancellation notice: Notifies a third party, usually an additional insured, that your policy will be canceled within 30 days
