Amazon LEJ1 Warehouse Closure: Important Notice for Sellers

Dear Forest Shipping customers,

According to an official Amazon notice, the Amazon LEJ1 warehouse will be permanently closed starting July 13, 2026. To help cross-border e-commerce sellers better plan their Amazon FBA Germany warehouse shipments, inventory transfers, and delivery schedules, Forest Shipping would like to share the following key updates and shipping recommendations.

Key Information About the Amazon LEJ1 Warehouse Closure

The affected warehouse code is LEJ1.

The warehouse will be permanently closed on July 13, 2026. Starting from that date, LEJ1 will no longer accept inbound shipments, provide storage services, or support related fulfillment operations.

The latest available appointment date is July 6, 2026.

The latest inbound delivery date is July 13, 2026.

This closure is permanent. Once the LEJ1 warehouse is closed, it will not resume operations.

Forest Shipping kindly reminds all customers to make proper arrangements for any inventory currently stored at LEJ1, as well as any shipments that are already on the way or planned for delivery to this warehouse.

At present, the system has disabled new shipment orders to the LEJ1 warehouse.

Shipping Recommendations for Amazon Sellers

To reduce potential delays, failed deliveries, or additional handling costs caused by the Amazon LEJ1 warehouse closure, Forest Shipping recommends the following actions:

1. Pause New Shipments to LEJ1

Sellers should stop arranging new shipments to LEJ1 as soon as possible. If you are preparing Amazon FBA Germany warehouse shipments, please review your shipment plan and confirm whether Amazon has assigned another available warehouse destination.

2. For Cargo Already Arrived at the Destination Warehouse

For goods that have already arrived near the destination or are waiting for delivery, LEJ1 can still receive shipments at the moment. However, the warehouse is currently experiencing serious congestion.

Please contact the Forest Shipping team in advance to confirm the latest delivery schedule. If necessary, we may assist in evaluating whether the shipment should be redirected to another warehouse after relabeling.

3. For Cargo Already in Transit

For shipments that have already been dispatched and are currently in transit, sellers should check the estimated arrival time carefully. Based on the expected warehouse arrival date, you may need to consider changing the warehouse destination and relabeling the goods before final delivery.

This step is especially important for shipments that may arrive close to the final inbound deadline. Early planning can help reduce risks such as missed appointments, rejected deliveries, or additional storage and relabeling costs.

Final Reminder from Forest Shipping

The Amazon LEJ1 warehouse closure may affect shipment planning, delivery appointments, and inventory flow for cross-border e-commerce sellers shipping to Germany. Forest Shipping recommends that sellers review all LEJ1-related shipments immediately, especially cargo already in storage, in transit, or scheduled for upcoming delivery.

As an international freight forwarder, Forest Shipping will continue to monitor warehouse delivery conditions and support sellers with practical logistics solutions, including shipment planning, warehouse redirection, relabeling coordination, and delivery arrangement. If your goods are related to LEJ1, please contact our team as early as possible so we can help you evaluate the most suitable next step.
