How to Close Your KDP Account

1: Unpublish Your Books

Before you can close your account, you will need to unpublish all of your books.

1. Log in to your KDP account and go to the Bookshelf section.
2. For each book, click on the "..." button (options menu) next to it.
3. Select Unpublish to remove it from the Amazon store.

2: Contact KDP Support

1. Go to the KDP Help Page at https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help
2. Click on the yellow Contact Us button.
3. Under Account Issues, select the option related to closing your account.
4. Write a message explaining that you wish to deactivate your account. Include your account details.

3: Wait for Confirmation

Once you’ve sent your request, the KDP team will review it and if everything checks out, they’ll deactivate your account and let you know via email. This could take a few days.

Key Points to Remember

No Reactivation: Once your account is closed, it’s final. You’ll need to create a new account if you wish to return to KDP. Access to Royalties: Ensure that all royalties from past sales are collected before closing your account. Customer Support Assistance: If you have questions during the process, KDP customer support is there to help.
