New Recoupment Agreement for Cross-Border Sellers
As of 657 (mid-Feb), sellers registered on Hong Kong, Malaysia, Philippines, and Singapore sites will need to accept an agreement before they can list on the US and UK sites. For example, an HK seller would need to accept an agreement before listing for the first time on the US site. Otherwise those listings will be blocked. Sellers registered on other sites may be served this agreement in the future if we expand this requirement.
The agreement must be accepted on the site, but the API will provide which sites require those agreements (GeteBayDetails), and what agreements users have accepted (GetUser). You can use this to verify in advance that sellers are eligible to list on the US or UK sites.
