What this means for you

FDA registration — explained simply

Most importers know they need an FDA-registered facility but aren't always sure what it means in practice. Here's how it works.

Step 1

FDA requires registration

If you import food, supplements, cosmetics, or health products into the US, the FDA requires your goods to be stored at a registered facility. Without one, your shipment can be held or refused at customs.

Step 2

You use our facility number

Ship My Deal provides you with our FDA facility registration number. You include this number in your prior notice and customs entry documentation — satisfying the FDA requirement immediately.

Step 3

Your goods arrive safely

Your shipment clears customs smoothly, arrives at our Temecula warehouse, and we handle the rest — storage, fulfillment, FBA prep, or distribution — whatever your operation needs.

Questions importers ask us every week

"My supplements were held at customs because I don't have an FDA facility."

This is the most common reason shipments get delayed. Use our FDA registration number on your next import and your goods will clear without that hold.

"I import skincare from overseas. Do I need an FDA registered warehouse?"

Yes — cosmetics and skincare imported into the US fall under FDA jurisdiction. Having a registered facility on record makes your customs process smooth and compliant.

"I sell vitamins and supplements on Amazon. Can you handle FBA prep too?"

Absolutely. We're FDA registered AND an FBA prep center. Your supplements can arrive from overseas, clear customs, get prepped for Amazon, and ship to Moreno Valley — all from one warehouse.

"I need a California warehouse close to the port for my food import business."

We're one hour from the ports of LA and Long Beach, and FDA registered. We receive containers, devano, store, and distribute food products — with full compliance documentation.

"My current warehouse isn't FDA registered. Can I switch to Ship My Deal?"

Yes — and it's easier than you think. We can receive a transfer of your inventory and have you set up with our FDA number for your next import. Book a call and we'll walk through the transition.

"I'm an international seller importing health products to sell in the US market."

Ship My Deal serves many international sellers who use our California warehouse as their US base. We provide the FDA facility number, handle receiving, storage, and fulfillment — everything you need in one place.

Common questions

What importers ask before working with us

Do I need an FDA registered warehouse for my products?

If you import food, dietary supplements, cosmetics, beverages, or health products into the United States, the FDA requires your US storage facility to be registered. Without an FDA-registered facility on record, your shipment can be flagged, held, or refused at customs. Using Ship My Deal's facility number satisfies this requirement.

How do I use your FDA facility number in my import documentation?

You provide our FDA facility registration number to your customs broker or freight forwarder. They include it in the FDA Prior Notice submission and CBP entry forms before your shipment arrives. We walk every new client through this process on an onboarding call — it's simpler than most people expect.

Can you handle both FDA storage AND Amazon FBA prep for supplements?

Yes — this is one of our most common service combinations. Your supplements arrive from overseas, clear customs using our FDA number, arrive at our warehouse, we prep them for Amazon (labeling, barcoding, bundling), and ship to Amazon's Moreno Valley fulfillment center which is 25 minutes away. One warehouse handles the entire chain.

What is FDA Prior Notice and why does it matter?

FDA Prior Notice is a required submission that alerts the FDA before food, supplement, or other regulated products arrive in the US. It must include the name of the US facility where the goods will be stored. By using Ship My Deal as your registered facility, you fulfill this requirement and keep your shipments moving without customs delays.

Do you have minimum volume requirements for FDA storage?

No minimums. We work with importers of all sizes — from small specialty food brands shipping a few pallets per month to larger supplement companies with high-volume imports. If your products fall under FDA jurisdiction and you need a registered US facility, we can help regardless of your current volume.

I'm an international seller. Can I use Ship My Deal as my US FDA facility?

Absolutely. Many of our clients are international sellers and importers who use our Temecula warehouse as their entire US operation — FDA-compliant storage, order fulfillment, FBA prep, and distribution all from one California location. We're experienced working with overseas businesses across different time zones and requirements.
