Holiday return windowIn recent years Amazon has extended its standard 30-day return window for the holidays. For the 2025 season, most items purchased between November 1 and December 31 could be returned until January 31, 2026, while Apple-branded products had a January 15 deadline. Amazon usually confirms the details for each season in the fall. Planning to drop off a return on a holiday? Check our holiday store hours guide first, as some drop-off partners close on major holidays. Tips to Avoid Return FeesLook for the "FREE Returns" label under the price of an item to confirm that returns are free before you buy. Not every item is eligible for a no-box, no-label return. Large, heavy or special items may need to be packed or picked up. Amazon may charge a fee for some return methods, for example when a free drop-off location is nearby. The return center shows any fee before you confirm. Items sold by third-party sellers can follow different return rules. Check the seller's policy on the order page.

At no-box, no-label drop-off locations you only need the item and the QR code from the Amazon app. Some large or special items still need packaging. Can I return Amazon items at Kohl's?Yes.
