Where to register GST for Amazon FBA

FBA can place your stock in several states. Here's how to choose where to register GST — and avoid registering everywhere needlessly.

Amazon FBA distributes inventory to fulfilment centres to speed up delivery. Because each storage state is a place of business, FBA sellers often need multiple GSTINs. The trick is registering in the right states, not all of them.

Let demand guide your states

Start where your sales concentrate. Common high-volume FBA states include Maharashtra, Karnataka, Delhi NCR (Haryana/UP), Telangana, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal. Use the Multi-state GST Checker to confirm based on your plan.

The VPOB + APOB setup

  1. Pick a target state.
  2. Get a VPOB address there and register the GSTIN.
  3. Add the Amazon fulfilment centre as an APOB on that GSTIN.
  4. Enable that state in Seller Central and send inventory.

Don't over-register

Each GSTIN means returns to file in that state. Add states as your volume justifies, following our scaling playbook. You can always expand later.

You don't need a physical office in each FBA state. A VPOB provides the compliant address; the warehouse is your APOB.

Frequently asked questions

Do I register GST in every FBA state?

Only where Amazon will store your stock. Start with your highest-demand states and expand as volume grows.

Can I use one address for FBA registration?

You need a VPOB in each state you register in, with the FBA centre added as an APOB on that GSTIN.

How do I add a fulfilment centre to my GSTIN?

Add it as an additional place of business (APOB) via a GST amendment. Our team can handle this for you.
