Amazon Transparency Label Maker

With the Amazon Transparency Label Maker, you can create Transparency labels using the Transparency codes provided by Amazon, following Amazon's standards, with 6 different layouts and 2 different CTA options.

  • Type 1 (1.125" x 1.125"), Type 2 (1.75" x 0.75") and Type 5 (2.0" x 1.0") carry the Transparency code and a Product ID (GTIN or SKU) printed as text.
  • Type 3 (1.375" x 1.375") adds a scannable product barcode (FNSKU or GTIN).
  • Type 4 (4.0" x 1.375") and Type 6 (2.0" x 1.0") also include your brand name and product details.
  • Type 5 and Type 6 are also available as 40 Up on US Letter sheets for Avery label paper.

You can generate Transparency labels in three ways:

  • Manual - Single Product: Enter your Transparency codes and product information via the web form. The same product information is printed on every label.
  • Bulk - Single Product: Upload a CSV file with your Transparency codes. You can also directly upload the CSV file provided by Amazon. Available to authenticated users only.
  • Bulk - Multiple Products: Upload an Excel or CSV file where every row has its own Transparency code and Product ID (your FNSKU or GTIN), so different products can be labeled in one go. Available to authenticated users only.

Each generated Transparency label deducts one product label from your usage limit.

    Enter the Product ID (GTIN or SKU). It is printed as text; no barcode is drawn.

Bulk - Single Product

  1. 1
    Click the Bulk - Single Product tab. Upload the CSV file by clicking or dragging and dropping. You can use the CSV file provided directly by Amazon - do not modify the column headers. The CSV should have Transparency codes in a single-headed column. All labels get the same product information, which you enter in the window that opens after the upload.

  2. 2
    Click the Get Labels button. Your labels will be downloaded as a PDF and opened in a new browser tab.

Bulk - Multiple Products

  1. 1
    Select your layout, then click the Bulk - Multiple Products tab. Use it when every label needs its own Product ID (and, on some layouts, its own brand and description). This tab is available to signed-in users only.
  2. 2
    On layouts that print a product barcode (Type 3, Type 4 and Type 6), select the Barcode Type for the Product ID (your FNSKU or GTIN): Code 128, EAN-13, EAN-8 or UPC-A. It applies to all rows. Type 1, Type 2 and Type 5 print the Product ID (GTIN or SKU) as text, so no Barcode Type is asked. The 40 Up versions work the same way as their base layout.
  3. 3
    Click Download Template and fill in one row per label. The Transparency Code is printed as a DataMatrix code. The columns depend on your layout:
    Multiple product transparency labels

    Type 1, Type 2, Type 3 and Type 5

    Transparency Code, Product ID (GTIN or SKU).

    Type 4

    Transparency Code, Product ID (GTIN or SKU), Brand (required), Description Line 1, Description Line 2, Description Line 3.

    Type 6

    Transparency Code, Product ID (GTIN or SKU), Brand (required), Description, State.

  4. 4
    The downloaded template already keeps cells in text format, so GTINs and UPCs stay intact. If you type into a new Excel file, format the Product ID (GTIN or SKU) column as Text; otherwise Excel may turn long numbers into scientific notation or drop leading zeros. Every Transparency Code must be unique.
  5. 5
    Click the upload area and choose your completed Excel or CSV file. The file is checked first. If something is wrong, you will see the row numbers with the problem, such as an empty cell, a duplicated Transparency Code, a Product ID (GTIN or SKU) that does not match the selected Barcode Type or has a wrong check digit, or a missing Brand. Fix those rows and upload again.
  6. 6
    When the file passes the check, the labels are generated automatically and downloaded as a PDF.
