Another seller is mapping your listing
Indian sellers call it mapping. Every US guide calls it hijacking, which is one reason the advice you need does not come up when you search for the thing you are actually experiencing.
Being Brand Registered does not prevent it and does not auto-remove anyone, which is the first thing to accept. The route that works is Report Abuse on the detail page, selecting that the page was changed to represent a different product, with the ASIN creation date and the original brand name included. The India-only lever is the GST number on a test-order invoice.
- Indian sellers say mapping and de-mapping; no US blog and no Amazon page uses that word.
- Brand Registry does not stop it and a registered trademark does not auto-remove anyone.
- Report Abuse, select that the page was changed to represent a different product, include the ASIN creation date.
- A test order gives you the other seller's GST details on the invoice, which is a lever US guides do not have.
- Amazon's marketing, its support staff and its own UI contradict each other on who may edit a detail page.
Indian sellers describe this as another seller mapping into their listing, and ask Amazon to de-map them. The vocabulary is consistent and it appears in four grammatical forms across independent threads. No US or UK.
The word is the reason you cannot find help
Indian sellers describe this as another seller mapping into their listing, and ask Amazon to de-map them. The vocabulary is consistent and it appears in four grammatical forms across independent threads. No US or UK article uses it, and neither does any Amazon page, so searching the words you would naturally use returns advice written for a different market.
That is not a trivia point. It means the material that does rank for your phrasing is thin, and the material that is useful is filed under a word you would not type.
Brand Registry is not the protection it is sold as
Amazon's brand registry page says that once enrolled, only you and sellers associated with your brand can create or suggest updates to your product detail pages. Sellers who are enrolled report exactly the opposite, including one whose branded listings were repeatedly mapped by sellers of cheap duplicates under the same ASIN.
A peer answered the follow-up question correctly where Amazon did not: once a trademark registers, Amazon does not automatically remove anyone. You still have to complain. And Amazon's own positions disagree with each other, with marketing saying only you can update the page, Seller Support telling a brand owner that other sellers can update images, and the interface telling an enrolled seller they are not qualified to change the title.
What actually works
Report Abuse on the detail page, choosing the option that the product detail page was changed to represent a different product, and include the ASIN creation date and the original brand name. That specificity is what separates a report that moves from one that is closed. It came from an Amazon staff post with over eleven thousand views, whose own comment section documents how often the problem recurs after a successful complaint.
The India-only lever is simpler and underused: place a test order from the other seller, and the invoice carries their GST details. That identifies a real legal entity, which is the basis for a notice. No US guide suggests it because no US marketplace invoice carries it.
Where this sits in the rest of your Amazon operation
Robnu is read-only on Amazon today: orders, returns, payouts and inventory sync so you can see and reconcile them, and it cannot accept Amazon orders or make their labels. Order processing is live for AJIO and Meesho. Related reading:

Questions sellers ask
It is what Indian sellers call another seller listing against your ASIN, what US guides call hijacking or piggybacking. The vocabulary matters because searching the Indian phrasing returns almost nothing useful while the equivalent US advice is abundant under a different word. Sellers also ask Amazon to de-map the other seller, which is the request you want to make.
No, and Amazon's own marketing implies otherwise. Enrolled sellers report their branded listings being mapped repeatedly. Registration also does not auto-remove anyone once a trademark comes through: you still have to complain each time. Treat Brand Registry as the thing that gives you the reporting tools rather than the thing that prevents the problem.
Report Abuse on the detail page and select that the product detail page was changed to represent a different product, including the ASIN creation date and the original brand name in the report. That combination came from an Amazon staff guide and is more specific than the generic infringement route most sellers try first.
Place a test order from them. The invoice carries their GST details, which identifies a real legal entity in India. That is the basis for a legal notice and it is a lever that does not exist in the US, which is why no US guide mentions it.
Yes. There is a notice revoking a seller's access to Amazon's report infringement forms due to actions taken in violation of its policy on reporting intellectual property infringement. It is rare and nobody has written it up, but it means the reporting route is itself something you can lose by overusing it.
