AWS Marketplace Introduces support for ISV Sellers Based in the European Union

Posted on: Jul 5, 2016

We are happy to announce that Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) with legal entities in countries participating in the European Union (EU) can now register, list, and sell products on AWS Marketplace, bringing a broad new selection to AWS’s worldwide customers. 

Since its launch in 2012, AWS Marketplace has been a powerful new channel for ISVs with US-based legal entities to easily offer software products tailored to run on the AWS cloud; however, organizations without a US tax presence have been unable to offer products on the AWS Marketplace due to legal and tax restrictions imposed by the US government. Now, the AWS Marketplace has enhanced its platform to collect and manage the tax entity information required to support ISVs based in the EU, giving these ISVs an innovative selling channel for the cloud and providing the same value in simplified marketing, deployment, and payments management enjoyed by their US counterparts since the launch of Marketplace.
