PO Box instead of home address
I am a brand new (as in 48 hours into this) individual seller who will (hopefully) sell a small number of items working out of my home. I just noticed on my first listing that my full legal name and home address are shown to potential buyers. That feels very unsafe! I am willing to get a PO BOX if there is a way to change that displayed "Detailed Seller Information" from my home to the PO Box. Is this allowed? And if so, how do I make that change in my account set up to reflect the PO Box instead of my house?
I am not thrilled with my full legal name showing either ~ are there any workarounds to prevent that?

No the law says that your business name and address must be listed. If thats the name and address you registered under that is what they will display. You can attempt to get all your information changed but then you have to somehow convince amazon to change it. AND you will have to get all the wholesale businesses that you are buying from to make it match on that end so that all your invoices show the same information across the board. If your invoice info doesn't match your amazon info then they won't accept that invoice leaving you with "counterfeit" merchandise which gets your account permanently deactivated and all money and goods confiscated.
As a follow up, you do know that you can't do RA/OA on amazon anymore? And that any product you list has an actual wholesale invoice for it? If there is tax on the paperwork then it is a receipt, not an invoice.
