Yes — in many cases you can return something to Amazon without a printer by choosing a QR-code or other no-label return option.
How to do it
- Open Your Orders in the Amazon app or on the website.
- Select the item and tap Return or replace items.
- Follow the prompts and look for a return method that says no printer required, QR code, or label-free.
- If available, Amazon will show you a QR code on your phone and/or email it to you.
- Take the item to the selected drop-off location and show the QR code.
What may happen at drop-off
Depending on the return method and location, the drop-off site may be able to scan the QR code and print the return label for you. Some returns may also be label-free or box-free, but that depends on the item and the specific return option Amazon offers.
Where Amazon may offer drop-off returns
Amazon may show different drop-off partners depending on your order and ZIP code, such as:
- The UPS Store
- Whole Foods Market
- Kohl’s
- Other participating return locations
Important notes
- Not every item qualifies for printer-free, label-free, or box-free returns.
- Availability can vary by ZIP code, item type, and Amazon’s current return options.
- If you do not see a no-printer option, Amazon may require a different return method, such as printing a label or using a carrier pickup.
