How to avoid common location errors due to eBay business policies
Sometimes, when bulk listing on eBay with Nembol, you get this error:
“Your item Location indicates that your item is in the United States, but you’ve chosen a shipping service that ships from outside the US. In order for your listing to be clear, please go back and edit the item location or the shipping service to make sure that they are accurate. For more information, see our Item location misrepresentation policy.”
This is quite common among new users and fresh eBay accounts. The reason is due to inconsistency between stated Item Location and Business Policies.
In this guide, we will go through how to change item location only. You can read our dedicated guides on eBay Business Policy management here:

How to state item location on Nembol
You can choose a default item location in your Nembol settings for all listings that you will post on eBay via Nembol.
- Under “Publish settings”, in Nembol’s eBay settings, you have to set your business policies and type your postal code (mandatory only to use calculated shipping). Choose the item location from the dropdown menu, together with the shipping policy, returns policy, and payment policy (see screenshot below).
From now on, Nembol will publish on eBay all your products using this item location.
This setting is not retroactive, meaning that if you change the item location in your Nembol settings, Nembol will not modify previously published items.
