For Online Store Sellers

Who can sell on the Yana online store?

Any shop based in and operating from Nagaland, whoever runs it. The rule is about where your shop is, not who you are — there is no ethnicity, community or background requirement, and there are no documents to submit to us. New shops are reviewed before they appear publicly. You can read the full seller terms.
