Many of our stores have 14 days to remove a book from sale, so we recommend that you wait at least two weeks before entering an exclusive distribution. Please note that it may take 4-6 weeks or longer for the titles to be removed from retail outlets around the world.
Please do not enter KDP Select until you are certain that your books have been appropriately removed.
Withdrawn more than 1 book
If you would like to remove many of your books at the same time, you can do it under your imprint settings. Go to the Stores page, select the imprint, click on Update stores, and set the Status to Inactive.
Reinstating books
Once your KDP Select has ended or you have made all the changes you deemed necessary, you can reactivate your book at any time. Go to My Books, open the book by 'View and edit', then click on 'Publish'.
If you would like to re-start the distribution for more than books under the same imprint, go to the Stores page, select the imprint, click on Update stores, and set the Status to Active.
Making changes
You don't need to remove a book from sale to make changes or update your book. Just simply find your book under My Books. Open your book for editing by clicking on View and edit. Once you press 'Update', your book will be going through our internal review. After our approval, your updates will be sent out to the stores immediately.
