Amazon Product Image Requirements 2026

Amazon product images directly affect conversion and listing compliance. Here is what Seller Central expects in 2026 and how to prepare photos without expensive retouching.

Main image requirements

• Pure white background (RGB 255, 255, 255) for the main product image
• Product fills at least 85% of the frame
• Minimum 1000 px on longest side; 2000×2000 px recommended for zoom
• No text, logos, or promotional badges on the main image
• File formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, or TIFF

Secondary images

Lifestyle shots, infographics, and detail views can use non-white backgrounds. Use them to show scale, packaging, and use cases.

Free optimization workflow

1. Remove background — Amazon background remover
2. Resize to 2000×2000 — Amazon product photo resizer
3. Compress for upload — Amazon image optimizer

Common rejection reasons

• Off-white or gray backgrounds on main images
• Product too small in frame
• Low resolution below 1000 px
• Watermarks or promotional text
