How to fix: Ineligible for ship-to-store vehicle fulfillment

Remove the vehicle fulfillment [vehicle_fulfillment] attribute, or change the value to match the type of vehicle fulfillment for which your account is approved

A custom icon for Merchant Center Classic Article Header.

For one or more of your products, you’ve submitted the value “ship_to_store” for the option [option] sub-attribute of the vehicle fulfillment [vehicle_fulfillment] attribute. You must be approved for in-store fulfillment before you can use the value “ship_to_store”. According to our information, you have not been approved for in-store fulfillment and therefore are not eligible to submit this value for this attribute. As a result, your offer has been disapproved.

To resolve this issue, you must submit a value for this attribute that matches the vehicle fulfillment type for which your account is approved and meet the requirements for that fulfillment type. For example, if you have been approved for online vehicle fulfillment, you’ll need to change the value from “ship_to_store” to “online” in your product data. You’ll also need to provide shipping information.

If your account is not approved for vehicle ads, either remove this attribute or follow the steps to become a vehicle seller.
