Amazon Removes the Option to Switch Back to Classic Seller Central; the Redesigned Workspace Layout Will Soon Be the Default for All Sellers (September 28, 2026)
All sellers using Seller Central, especially those who had been relying on the classic interface and team members trained on the old navigation.
In a September 28, 2026 Seller Forums post, Amazon staff confirmed that sellers can no longer switch back to the classic Seller Central interface, and that the new Seller Central will soon be the default experience for all sellers. Tools have been reorganized into dedicated workspaces rather than removed, and Amazon says account data, listings, inventory, order history, SP-API integrations and third-party tools are unaffected. The practical impact is navigation: sellers and their teams need to relearn where everyday tools now live.
