Using an Amazon partnered carrier in the US as a Canadian
I run a business in Canada. I have already shipped my inventory to the Canadian warehouses using UPS (the Amazon partnered provider here).
My plan has always been to drive my inventory over the US border and mail it to the fulfillment centres from Buffalo (in order to make it cheaper and also deal with customs myself). I'm wondering how I can use Amazon partnered carriers from Buffalo as a Canadian - the system won't let me buy/print the labels to use with partners to send to the US because the system shows I'm sending from Canada.
Can I just print the FBA barcode as if I was sending it through a non-partnered carrier, take it over to a UPS in the USA, and they can create the mailing label/I can pay there?
Thanks for any thoughts!

Hi @Seller_stGmgQG8cPFgP,
Dominic from Amazon here, happy to help. The partnered carrier aspect is impacted by the ship from address. If you change the ship from address from the location you plan to send the products to the FCs. This should address this.
Best,
Dominic

Not if you want to pay the cheap prices of the APC program.
Determine which PO in Buffalo you will go to and get the address.
Use that PO Address as the ship from.
