How to Cancel Amazon Orders

The process of canceling an order will vary, depending on the stage of the delivery process at which the item currently stands.

How to Cancel an Amazon Order After Shipping

As the seller, you can cancel orders any time prior to shipment. The buyer has approximately thirty minutes to cancel an order they have placed. Orders that have already been shipped cannot be canceled. If a cancellation request is submitted at this point, the seller should contact the buyer and inform him that the item has already been shipped. The buyer has the option to return the item for a refund. Find out all the details about returns and refunds here. The buyer’s contact information can be found within the Order ID or in the seller’s orders list. Once you find the specific order you want to cancel, press “Cancel Order” and select the reason for cancellation.

Canceling Orders That Have Not Been Shipped

If a seller needs to cancel an order either because the item will not be shipped on time or because the item is out of stock or for any other reason, and the item has not yet been shipped, he can do it through his Seller Account.

1. Access the Manage Orders section, and go to View Your Orders.
2. Sellers can browse through the orders manually or use either the standard search or advanced search options provided to find the specific order in question.
3. A Cancel Order button should appear somewhere in the close vicinity of the order (either next to or below depending on the page view). Press this button to cancel the order.
4. A Cancel Order page will pop up automatically. Choose the Reason for Cancellation from the menu provided, and then press Submit.

Orders will automatically be canceled and an email will be sent to the Buyer.

Canceling Multi-Channel Fulfillment Orders

Multi-channel fulfillment orders can only be canceled while still in the planning stage. Once an order has graduated from planning to shipping, the order can no longer be canceled, and this window is short, sometimes fifteen minutes. If still in the planning stage, the cancelation procedure is as follows:

1. Find the specific order as explained above, and choose the Order ID in question to bring up all the order information.
2. There will be an option for Cancel This Order within the Multi-Channel Fulfillment Order details. Press this option, and the order will be canceled automatically.

Please note that orders that are out of stock and therefore unable to be shipped will retain the status of Unfulfillable until the stock has been refilled. Unfulfillable orders cannot be canceled. Instead, when the item is in stock again, the status for that order will be changed to Fulfillable, and a new order can be placed for that specific order.

Canceling a Fulfillment by Amazon Order

Fulfillment by Amazon orders can be canceled at any time during the process while the order has a Pending or Unshipped status by following these simple steps:

1. Get in touch with Amazon Seller Support.
2. Give the representative the specific Order ID or IDs.
3. Supply the ASIN for the order(s) as well as the quantity of items in each ASIN.
4. Provide the appropriate reason for canceling the order.

The Amazon Seller Support agent will supply the seller with cancelation confirmation and send an email to the Buyer apprising them of the cancelation. If the seller mistakenly cancels an order, it cannot be reinstated. The seller can reach out to the buyer and let him or her know of the mistake. If the customer is still interested, the seller can kindly request that the order is placed again.
