items that can be shipped to their country from the United States.
This experience is available on mobile browser and mobile app

devices. The International Shopping experience offers shopping in 5
languages, including English, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, German,
and Brazilian Portuguese, with the ability to shop in 25 currencies
including Uruguayan Peso. This makes it easier than ever for
Uruguayan customers to get the best of Amazon in their native

“We are always innovating on behalf of our customers, and with
today’s launch, we are making the shopping experience on mobile
devices even better and more convenient for our customers who live
outside the US,” said Samir Kumar, VP of Amazon Exports and
Expansion. “Customers have been asking for a way to easily find and
shop only for products available to be shipped to them. The
International Shopping experience solves this customer need and
makes it simple to browse, shop and ship more than 45 million
products to over a hundred countries around the world.”
To get started, customers can simply download the free Amazon
Shopping App from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and they
will automatically be placed into the International Shopping
experience, based on their location. Customers who already have the
Amazon Shopping App simply need to go into their settings within
the app, choose the ‘Country & Language’ option and select
‘International Shopping’ in the country picker. Customers can then
set their language and currency of preference to enjoy a customized
shopping experience, and can change their location at any time to
automatically see products that are eligible to be shipped to their
selected delivery location.
The International Shopping experience displays clear pricing,
shipping costs, and import duty estimates, with Amazon coordinating
with courier services for customs clearance on behalf of the
customer so there are no surprises at the time of purchase or
delivery. Customers will be able to browse and shop for products
across categories including Electronics, Books, Clothing, Shoes,
Toys and much more. For more information, please visit
