Amazon Brand Registry Countries

It is important to note here that Amazon Brand Registry is not available everywhere. The program is currently accepting trademarks issued by trademark authorities in the United States (US), Canada, European Union (EU), United Arab Emirates (UAE), India, Australia, Singapore, Japan, United Kingdom (UK), and a few other countries. Those brands whose trademarks are registered by WIPO are required to give the trademark number associated with the national office, which may be different from the WIPO trademark registration number.
