Summary
Policy guide restructured to highlight "Incorrect Category Violations" section with three concrete examples (boy's polo shirt, cat toy, refrigerator) and corrective steps. No new requirements introduced.
Why it matters
Improves visibility of existing categorization rules but does not introduce new enforcement or deadlines. Sellers already faced violation risk for miscategorization; this change clarifies existing policy through examples and navigation improvements only.
Recommended action
Review the updated guide to familiarize your team with example violations and competitor-reference best practice. Audit active listings for category accuracy, but no immediate compliance action is required.
Listing a boy’s polo shirt under Menswear instead of Kids’ Fashion.
Listing a cat toy under Small Animal Supplies instead of Dog & Cat Supplies.
Listing a refrigerator under Home Appliances instead of Large Home Appliances.
Re-list your product under the most accurate category.
Check competitors’ listings for reference if you’re unsure.
