Selling on Noon UAE
To start selling at Noon, just follow the steps below.
1. Sign Up on the Platform as a Partner
To start, open noon.com and go to “create a Store”. Follow all the instructions you see and fill in all the details. You’ll be taken to the document upload section.
2. Give in Your E-commerce License
You need a trade license, an e-commerce license to be more exact. This gives your business the permission to conduct commercial activities online, on social media, and on websites. Apply for your e-commerce license and submit it to the seller portal at noon when you submit the other documents.
3. Get Your Documents Ready and Upload
Now you need to set your documents in order. You’ll be asked to give your residence identification or passport, residence visa (in case of a foreign owner), and the VAT certificate. For selling beauty and health products, you also need to submit the manufacturer certificate or permit, purchase proof, and distribution authorization letter. Merchants who aren’t VAT registered need to get the VAT non-enrolment declaration. The documents need to be sealed and the business signatory signs are also required.
4. Give Details of Your Bank Account
After submitting the documents, you need to hand in your bank account details. These need to be valid. On a weekly basis, you will receive your e-commerce payments in your bank account. Double-check to ensure you give the appropriate details. Your details should include the account number, legal name of business, SWIFT codes, IBAN, store currency, and bank branch.
5. Consider Seller Fee
On its site, noon has a 4% to 27% sale commission based on the products you’re selling. Also, consider the handling and shipping fee that you need to pay. The storage fee at noon ranges from 0.2 AED to 5 AED based on the item.
6. Select Your Model
After you’ve registered at noon as a seller, you need to choose from the selling models. These include direct ship, cross-dock, or noon express (FBN). FBN is the most common because with this the noon team handles the process of packing, shipping, and logistics.
