How to Make an Inbound Shipment to Wildberries
An inbound shipment to Wildberries (under FBO) is a sequence: create a supply order in your seller account → pack and label the goods → pick a warehouse and book a time slot → deliver to the warehouse → pass acceptance. Every item needs a barcode, every box needs a label, and the slot has to be booked in advance, especially in high season. Labeling errors or quantity mismatches are a common cause of acceptance problems and fines.
In short: supply order → packing and labeling → warehouse slot → delivery → acceptance.
Shipment steps
- Supply order in your seller account: what you are shipping and how much.
- Packing and labeling: barcodes on items, labels on boxes and pallets (see shipping and labeling).
- Warehouse and slot: pick a warehouse (see how to choose a warehouse) and book a time slot.
- Delivery and acceptance: the goods are checked against the order by quantity and labeling. Acceptance discrepancies are the main source of shortages and warehouse losses, so record them in a report immediately.
What to check in advance
- Barcodes scan properly, box labels match the order.
- Chestny Znak mandatory labeling, if the category requires it (see Chestny Znak).
- The slot is booked - without one, nothing gets accepted.
- The inbound acceptance coefficient at the warehouse (see inbound acceptance coefficient).

"What is checked at WB acceptance?" Whether the actual quantity matches the order, whether the barcodes scan, and whether the box labels are correct. Discrepancies lead to delays and fines.
"How does an FBO shipment differ from FBS?" Under FBO you deliver the goods to a WB warehouse and WB ships the orders itself. Under FBS the goods stay with you and you ship them per order (see FBO vs FBS).
