Documented policy risks for food and supplement listings on Amazon DE
- Unsubstantiated health claims — Amazon DE restricts unsubstantiated health claims in food and supplement listings. Absolute claims about therapeutic effects, disease outcomes, or cure properties in product copy — including ingredients and nutrition descriptions — are documented restricted language that triggers listing suppression on Amazon Germany.
- Banned terms: Gewichtsverlust, garantiert — Gewichtsverlust (weight loss) and garantiert are documented restricted terms for food and supplement listings on Amazon DE. The free Amazon DE food listing checker flags these in titles and descriptions.
- Nutrition and ingredients in copy — Food listings that embed nutrition facts, dosage information, or ingredients lists in the product title risk exceeding the 200-character limit. Health claims within ingredients or nutrition text are a documented policy risk area for food and supplement listings on Amazon Germany.
- GPSR required info — EU General Product Safety Regulation requires responsible-person contact details on applicable product listings, including some food and supplement products sold in Germany. Missing GPSR required info is a documented suppression cause on Amazon DE.
- Title character limit — Amazon Germany enforces a 200-character title limit. Food and supplement listings with ingredient lists, dosage information, or nutrition details are a common violation trigger. The checker flags titles that exceed this limit.
- Back-translation divergence — Generic EN→DE translation tools can introduce health-claim language not present in the original English text, particularly in nutrition or ingredient descriptions. The full API pipeline flags semantic drift introduced during translation.

Run the Food & Supplements pre-check Food & Supplements listing requirements guideWhat the free tool checks vs. what the full API checks
Banned health claims (free)
Flags documented restricted terms like Gewichtsverlust, garantiert, and health claims in your food or supplement listing title and description.
Title character limit (free)
Flags titles over the Amazon DE 200-character limit. Food listings with nutrition details, dosage, or ingredients often push titles over this limit.
Back-translation gate (API)
The full API pipeline re-translates the German output to English and flags semantic drift — catching health claims introduced by generic EN→DE translation in nutrition or ingredient text.
GPSR required info (API)
The API pipeline checks whether EU GPSR responsible-person contact details are present. Missing GPSR required info is a documented suppression cause on Amazon Germany for applicable food products.
Model numbers & units (API)
The API pipeline deterministically flags corrupted dosage values and unit strings — a documented failure mode of generic translation tools for food and supplement listings.
