Amazon India and Flipkart tend to be fastest; gated categories and brand registry can add 5\u201310 additional days.<\/p>\n<h3>What documents do I need to get started?<\/h3>\n<p>Standard documents include: GST registration certificate, PAN card (individual or company), current bank account statement or cancelled cheque, proof of business address, product images meeting marketplace specifications, and brand trademark certificate (if available and if applying for Brand Registry). We provide a complete checklist after purchase.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you set up accounts on multiple marketplaces simultaneously?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. We can run parallel onboarding on multiple marketplaces. Multi-marketplace packages are available at a discounted rate \u2014 contact us for a custom quote if you need more than two marketplaces.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I need a trademark for Amazon Brand Registry?<\/h3>\n<p>For Amazon Brand Registry, you need a registered or pending trademark. We can guide you through the process of applying on the IP India portal (government trademark office). Flipkart&#8217;s Brand Alliance has more flexible requirements and may not require a full trademark registration.<\/p>\n<h3>What if my category is gated?<\/h3>\n<p>We handle gated category applications as part of this service. We&#8217;ll prepare the required approval documentation, product certifications, invoices, or test reports depending on the specific category requirements. If your category requires government-issued certifications (e.g., BIS, FSSAI), you&#8217;ll need to arrange those separately.<\/p>\n<h3>Will I own the accounts created, or does Netcloud retain access?<\/h3>\n<p>All accounts are registered in your name with your business credentials. You have full ownership. We request temporary sub-user access during setup and onboarding, which you can revoke at any time after the project is complete.<\/p>\n<h3>Is GST mandatory for selling on Indian marketplaces?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes for most categories. Amazon India and Flipkart require GST registration for all sellers (with some exceptions for certain books and unbranded items). We help you understand the GST requirements for your specific product category and guide you through registration if needed.<\/p>\n<h3>What happens after the setup is complete?<\/h3>\n<p>After handoff, you can manage your accounts independently. If you want ongoing professional management, our <a href=\"\/store\/product\/dedicated-marketplace-account-management-india\/\">Dedicated Account Management Service<\/a> (\u20b911,500\/month) is the natural next step. Many clients transition directly from setup to ongoing management.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you help with international marketplace setup (eBay, Etsy, Walmart)?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. We set up cross-border seller accounts on eBay, Etsy, and Walmart for Indian sellers. Cross-border setup has additional requirements including international payment gateway setup (typically PayPal or Payoneer), export documentation, and shipping carrier configuration. These are covered in our international setup package.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the refund policy for this service?<\/h3>\n<p>Since this is a professional service, refunds are not available once work has commenced. If we are unable to complete the setup due to marketplace restrictions outside our control (e.g., a product category being permanently closed), we will either find an alternative solution or refund the proportional amount for incomplete work. See our <a href=\"\/store\/refund-policy\/\">full Refund &amp; Service Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>What Comes Next After Setup?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/store\/product\/dedicated-marketplace-account-management-india\/\">Dedicated Account Management<\/a> \u2014 Monthly management by your own expert (\u20b911,500\/mo)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/store\/product\/marketplace-content-optimization-seo-india\/\">Content Optimization &amp; SEO<\/a> \u2014 Improve listing rankings after your account is live (\u20b921,000)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/store\/product\/marketplace-advertising-promotions-management-india\/\">Advertising &amp; Promotions Management<\/a> \u2014 Launch PPC campaigns to drive initial sales velocity (\u20b917,100\/mo)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/store\/product\/marketplace-management-full-service-package-india\/\">Full Service Package<\/a> \u2014 Everything included in one comprehensive monthly retainer (\u20b91,62,000\/mo)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professional <strong>marketplace setup and onboarding service<\/strong> by Netcloud Consulting.
