Does Amazon ship internationally? Only a slice — Amazon Global blocks most of the catalog.
For full Amazon international shipping, get a free US address or a live US shopper. Selectido buys from Amazon US, checks and repacks your order, and ships it to 60+ countries. Orders are dispatched the same day, Monday to Saturday.
The gap
Why Amazon US is the world's blocked-from-you store
Amazon.com is the single biggest US retailer — and the single biggest source of Amazon international shipping frustration. The Amazon Global program ships a tiny slice of the US catalog and blocks most third-party listings entirely. Whole categories — supplements, cosmetics, electronics with lithium batteries, household goods over a certain volume — are simply not available internationally even when the items themselves are completely legal in your country.
That gap is the entire reason Selectido exists. We give you a US address (forwarding) so Amazon's full domestic catalog ships normally, then we forward to 60+ countries. Or we put a real person in a US warehouse on video so you can compare three Amazon listings live and we buy whichever you pick.

What ships
What you can buy from Amazon US
- Electronics — laptops, headphones, GoPros, Sony, Bose, smart-home gear. Lithium-battery items follow IATA rules, no problem.
- Supplements & vitamins — Thorne, NOW Foods, Athletic Greens, every brand Amazon Global blocks but real Amazon stocks.
- Beauty & skincare — including brands Amazon won't ship internationally because of fragrance or aerosol rules.
- Books, toys, home goods, kitchen — anything physical that Amazon US sells, we forward.
- Amazon Warehouse / Renewed / Used — open-box items work the same as new. Often cheaper landed thanks to lower declared value.
- Third-party Marketplace listings — the ones Amazon Global silently filters out. We can buy from any seller on amazon.com.

Questions
The questions everyone asks
Does Amazon ship internationally?+
Amazon Global ships a small subset of the catalog and blocks most third-party listings, supplements, lithium-battery electronics, and cosmetics. Selectido gives you a US address (forwarding) or a live US shopper so the full Amazon catalog ships to 60+ countries.
How much does it cost to ship Amazon orders abroad?+
Forwarding is $14.99/outbound package plus actual carrier cost. A 5 lb order runs $35–75 to LATAM, $45–85 to MENA, $40–80 to Asia. Live shopping is $75/hr with a 15% discount on 2+ hour bookings.
Can Selectido use my Amazon account?+
Yes. Provide credentials securely and we check out on your account — points, Prime benefits, and gift card balance all apply. Or have us buy on the Selectido account if you'd rather not share login info.
How long does Amazon-to-international shipping take?+
Amazon → our Minneapolis warehouse: 1–2 days (Prime). Onward: Mexico 3–5d, Brazil 5–8d, UAE/Saudi 4–7d, India/Philippines 5–10d. Total door-to-door: 6–12 business days typically.
Can I order Amazon supplements, vitamins, or beauty internationally?+
Yes — these are exactly the categories Amazon Global blocks but Selectido can ship. We flag items prohibited by destination customs before purchasing.
What about Amazon electronics — laptops, GoPros, AirPods?+
Electronics ship internationally fine. We add customs paperwork showing personal-use intent and declared retail value. Lithium battery items follow IATA shipping rules.
Does Selectido handle Amazon returns?+
Yes — receive your return, repackage, and process the Amazon return label on your behalf at actual carrier cost.
Will Amazon prices in my country differ from amazon.com?+
Prices charged match the amazon.com US price you see. You pay USD. We add our forwarding fee + international shipping + estimated destination customs/VAT, all itemized in the quote.
Can I buy Amazon Warehouse / used / open-box items and ship them abroad?+
Yes — Amazon Warehouse, Renewed, and Used all forward fine. Some destinations have lower duty on used electronics, so used items can be cheaper landed.
Is this cheaper than MyUS, Shipito, or Stackry?+
Per-package fees are similar, but Selectido is the only one with live US shoppers for compare-on-video, and the only one that price-matches competitor quotes on identical packages.
Pro tip: consolidating multiple Amazon orders into one outbound shipment is the cheapest way to ship abroad. Order 4 things over a week, we hold them free, then ship as one box — one international fee instead of four.
