I would strongly suggest you start preparing for PRIME DAY. And start submitting shipment orders in Seller Central and send your inventory to the FC’s on mid April just to be on the safe side. Ideally it should be transit in Seller Central by June 15th which is enough time to process and have them available in Seller Central for PRIME DAY.
Last year, Prime Day was held on Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday, July 13. I predict the Prime Day 2023 date will likely be Tuesday, July 11 and Wednesday, July 12. However this DATES ARE NOT official and might slightly change.
