Title character limit
Amazon DE enforces a 200-character title limit for most categories. Titles that exceed this are suppressed before they ever go live.
Banned & restricted words
Absolute claims (bestseller, garantiert), superlatives (beste, perfekt), and health/medical efficacy terms (heilung, antibakteriell) are disallowed on Amazon Germany and trigger listing suppression.
Why machine translation fails
Generic MT engines routinely introduce banned terms when translating
marketing copy — guaranteed becomes garantiert,
best becomes beste. The ListLoco API detects and blocks these before
they reach the marketplace.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Amazon DE Listing Checker check?
It checks two things: (1) whether your product title exceeds Amazon Germany's 200-character limit, and (2) whether your title or description contains restricted banned words that trigger listing suppression.
Why do Amazon Germany product listings get suppressed?
Amazon DE suppresses listings that violate platform rules — for example, titles over 200 characters or listings that include restricted terms like garantiert, bestseller, or health-claim language. Suppressed listings are removed from search results until the violations are corrected.
What is the title character limit for Amazon Germany?
Amazon Germany enforces a 200-character title limit for most product categories. Titles longer than 200 characters are removed from search results and cannot be published until shortened.
