    How to buy on Amazon from Colombia

    By Christian Jessel, CEO of ByOrder · Updated November 2, 2026 · 1 min read

    To buy on Amazon from Colombia, set your locker address as the default, choose your product and check that the delivery shows your name with the BO identifier. Add your payment method, place the order and, with the tracking number, create your pre-alert in ByOrder.

    Step by step

    1. Sign in to your Amazon account and select your ByOrder address as the shipping address.
    2. Search for your product and check the color, model and seller.
    3. Add it to your cart and choose “Proceed to checkout”.
    4. In the delivery section, confirm that your address shows your full name and your identifier.
    5. Add your payment method and the billing address.
    6. Check that the total is what you expected and place the order.
    7. Go to Returns & Orders and look up your purchase.

    How to pay?

    Use a payment method Amazon accepts. If it asks about the currency, our suggestion is to be charged in US dollars and let your bank handle the currency exchange.

    What mistakes should you avoid?

    • Entering the US address as the billing address: Amazon could lock your account and ask for your statement.
    • Forgetting your BO identifier.
    • Confusing the order number with the tracking number.
    • Buying Amazon protection plans designed for use in the United States.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does Amazon ship to Colombia?

    Some products, yes, but the catalog is more limited. With a locker you shop as if you were in the United States.

    What is the billing address?

    Your bank's address on file, exactly as it appears on your card statement. It is not the US address.

    Why did I receive two tracking numbers?

    Amazon may split one order into several packages. You need to pre-alert each tracking number separately.
