Address question on paperwork for amazon handmade
I’m trying to set up my amazon handmade store. I do not want my physical address on my public seller profile for obvious reasons. However, amazon requires that all pieces of paperwork have the same address (makes sense) yet a trade mark can only be issued with my physical address. Sellers I checked earlier today have a PO Box listed on their seller profile (physical address of local post office + po box added after) while simultaneously having their brand registered with amazon. What gives? I’m not trying to circumvent amazon rules, it’s clearly what sellers do (six out of the six I checked), but I’m not sure if there’s an additional step between? LLC? The lawyer I consulted for my trademark application said that even with an LLC, I’d still need my physical address for my TM application. I had both my EIN and DBA license switched over from my PO Box to my physical address to match the address on my trademark application. But just this morning saw that amazon apparently just post this address for all to see, not a mailing address which would make more sense. I’m just so lost in this paperwork nightmare. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!
