Hello @Electronicsneed , there are list of prohibited products that you can't sell on Shopify. Branded products are one of them. 

If you want to sell these products then you will need to have their approval first and must follow their brand guidelines.

Your store could be freeze or banned. And, or may further legal proceedings could also be held. So, avoiding branded products are recommend.

Hi @osamafarooqi71 

I tried submitting documentation (which confirms I have permission to resell the products) to the legal team regarding the sale of certain brands on Shopify, but they advised me to contact the support team. When I reached out to support, they suggested uploading the products first and waiting to see if I receive any notifications. However, I want to submit all the paperwork before listing my first item. Do you know how I can do that?

Hi, @Electronicsneed.

 

Thank you for reaching out! 

 

Yes, you can sell branded items on your online store. However, there are a few factors to consider when selling branded items:

 

  • Authorized Reseller: Ensure that you are an authorized reseller of the branded items you plan to sell. Some brands have specific requirements and agreements for reselling their products. Contact the brand or its authorized distributor to inquire about becoming an official reseller.
  • Intellectual Property: Be aware of intellectual property rights and trademarks associated with the brands you sell. Avoid infringing on any trademarks or copyrights and respect the brand's intellectual property.

Remember to always research and comply with legal requirements and regulations for selling branded items in your specific region or country.

 

Please let me know if you have any further questions!

I was wondering if I could list product from Lenovo store (AliExpress ) and Xiaomi (AliExpress,) they must be the official store , anyway I been ask them trough the chat if I'm allowed to use their products images to put on my web site and the reply that as soon mi intention is to sell goods I'm allowed ,I also write an email to Xiaomi ,and they said that I'm allowed to use pictures unless I try to imitate with a fake Xiaomi store ,so I don't know if this is enough ,I mean when you work dropping (is my first time ) the seller should having the right to post that kind of products and they giving to other (in this case me )the rights ,but maybe I'm wrong o I don't know what I should do.
