What is the European Fulfilment Network (EFN)?
The European Fulfilment Network (EFN) is a service that allows Amazon Sellers to store inventory in one EU country and fulfil orders across all Amazon's European marketplaces.

How does Monta's EFN differ from Amazon's European Fulfilment Network?
While both services aim to simplify cross-border selling, Monta's EFN fees are often lower than Amazon's European Fulfilment Network. EFN also offers more flexibility in inventory placement and can provide better return logistics options for sellers looking to expand their presence in Europe.
Do I need separate VAT registrations for each country when using an EFN?
