A cross-border boss registered a Hong Kong company with a shared address of a registration center. The account was used for a year and a half, and one day suddenly received an Amazon email:

“It has come to our attention that there are compliance issues with your account, official proof of company address is required ......”

What followed was a lengthy complaint process. The final result: the account was permanently suspended and the $100,000 payment for the goods was held for 180 days.

Little did he know that Amazon was already using an AI system to verify the authenticity of registered addresses in Hong Kong.

Amazon's global compliance audit system, which completed a major upgrade in the second half of 2025:

• Old logic:Submission of registration certificates with the right address is sufficient and rarely verified.
• New Logic:The AI system is directly linked to the Hong Kong Companies Registry database for verification, automatically identifying virtual addresses, shared registration centers, and addresses that cannot be verified on-site, and triggering the compliance audit process as soon as a “high-risk address” is determined.
