Hi @Seller_s4rJaN7yd3NNS

Thank you for your question. As a Canadian seller planning to sell on Amazon FBA in the United States, you'll need to obtain an EIN (Employer Identification Number) from the IRS. You don't need a CAIN (Canadian Business Number) for selling on Amazon US.

Here's what you need to know:

EIN: This is required for non-US sellers to sell on Amazon.com and use FBA services in the US. You can apply for an EIN online through the IRS website.

CAIN: This is not required for selling on Amazon US. It's used for Canadian tax purposes within Canada.

Tax obligations: As a Canadian selling in the US, you may have US tax obligations. It's advisable to consult with a tax professional who specializes in cross-border e-commerce to ensure you're compliant with both Canadian and US tax laws.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

-Connor
