Summary
Product categorization guidance restructured. New best practice: use Seller Center categorization feature, title formatting template, and manual override process. No new requirements—clarified existing category selection workflow.
Why it matters
Clearer categorization guidance helps sellers avoid miscategorization policy violations and improves discoverability, but the substantive rule (select accurate category) remains unchanged. Procedural clarification only.
Recommended action
Review the new categorization feature UI in Seller Center and apply title template ([Brand] + [Content] + [Scope] + [Type] + [Function]) when listing products to optimize auto-categorization.
Use the product categorization feature in Seller Center to identify the most accurate category for your product.
Enter clear product details in your title (for example, “[Brand] + [Content] + [Scope of Application] + [Product Type] + [Main Function/Feature]”) to fine-tune auto-categorization.
If the suggested category is not right, manually select the category that best fits your product.
Always select the category where your customers would expect to find the product.
