What Amazon's notification says
“Your account has been deactivated because it is related to another selling account”
Amazon associated your account with another, usually one already enforced against.
Either explain the legitimate basis for operating both, or demonstrate the link is coincidental with evidence of separation. Denying a link Amazon can see is the fastest route to permanent closure.
Governing clause: BSA §3(b) or §3(c).
| Requirement | Where it comes from |

| One selling account unless Amazon approved a legitimate business need | Selling Policies & Seller Code of Conductsellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/G1801 |
| Full disclosure of related accounts | Selling Policies & Seller Code of Conductsellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/G1801 |
