# How to find Amazon Browse Nodes IDs for your products

## <mark style="color:$primary;">**About Amazon Browse Node ID**</mark>

Browse Node IDs are numeric codes used to identify specific product categories within Amazon’s marketplace. Each of the 40+ main categories and 25,000+ subcategories is uniquely distinguished by its own ID.

For example: Jewelry Accessories (9616098011), Women's Dresses (1045024), Fabric (12899121).&#x20;

Amazon utilizes thousands of Browse Node IDs across its marketplace. While top-level Browse Node IDs typically remain constant, sub-level Browse Node IDs are subject to frequent change. Amazon reserves the right to create, modify, or remove browse nodes without prior notification.

Finding the correct Browse Node ID is essential when listing a product on Amazon that has not been associated with an [ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number)](https://litcommerce.gitbook.io/litcommerce-helpdesk/marketplace-integration/supported-platforms/amazon/how-to-sell-on-amazon-with-litcommerce-product-identifiers-and-gtin-exemption#asin-amazon-standard-identification-number). However, if your product already has an ASIN, the Browse Node ID you assign to your Amazon listing becomes relatively insignificant.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Browse Node IDs are unique to a specific Amazon locale (e.g.,** [**Amazon.com**](https://www.amazon.com/)**,** [**Amazon.co.uk**](https://www.amazon.co.uk/)**, or** [**Amazon.fr**](https://www.amazon.fr/)**).**&#x20;

**While the same numeric ID may appear across multiple locales, these Browse Node IDs function independently. Their names and purposes are distinct and hold no relation to one another.**

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Examine the URL displayed in your browser's address bar. Look for the section "\&recommendedBrowseNodeId=xxxxxx". In our example, the code "3741281" represents the Browse Node ID specific to your chosen category.&#x20;

For example: the URL looks like [https://sellercentral.amazon.com/abis/listing/create?itemType=built-in-dishwashers\&produc\[…\]s\&recommendedBrowseNodeId=3741281\&ref\_=xx\_catadd\_dnav\_xx](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/abis/listing/create?itemType=built-in-dishwashers\&produc\[%E2%80%A6]s\&recommendedBrowseNodeId=3741281\&ref_=xx_catadd_dnav_xx)
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

The identified code is the Browse Node ID you are seeking for your products.
