Clarification for Expiration date on Supplements
The supplement I am selling is currently being sold by a few different re-sellers and is already approved on amazon. I just purchased inventory to sell on amazon. However my expiration date is June 2025. I thought I would be fine to sell this on amazon seeing how it is over a year before it expires. However now I have been reading that it needs a 730 day (2 year) expiration date or it will be disposed of via FBA?
Before I pay to ship this to a FC can anyone advise as to if this product will be rejected and disposed of due to it not have a two year expiration date? I don't want to just throw a couple of grand down the drain.
Appreciate all advice!

Hi @Seller_AmTfFEY32eN5d,
Thank you for reaching out with this question! Happy to help clarify this a bit further.
Herbal or mineral supplements do need a minimum arrival time of 730 days at the fulfillment center before product expiry. Please note that not adhering to this policy may result in the removal of your listings, disposal of your inventory, or the deactivation of your Amazon selling account.
For more information on this policy, I'd encourage you to read through this help page about expiration dates on FBA products.
I hope this helps! If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
All the best,
Jameson
