How to submit, track, and complete a Return Merchandise Authorization

What Is an RMA?

An RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) is the process for returning a product for repair, replacement, or evaluation. This guide walks you through every step — from submitting your request to receiving your item back.

1 Submit an RMA Request

  1. Go to the RMA Manager homepage.
  2. Click "Submit a New RMA".
  3. Fill in the form below, then click "Submit RMA Request".

Your Information

Product Information

📦
Returning multiple products? Click "Add Another Product" to add additional products to the same RMA. Each product has its own model, serial number, purchase date, and issue description. You can remove any product before submitting by clicking "Remove".
After submitting, you will see your unique RMA ID (e.g., RMA-260310-1234). A confirmation email will be sent to your address — save it. It contains a secure link to track your RMA.

2 Wait for Authorization

Your RMA is now Pending Review. A company representative will review your submission and authorize it.

You will receive an email (and SMS if you provided a phone number) when your RMA is Authorized. This email includes:

⚠️
Do not ship your item until you receive the authorization email. Packages sent without an authorization number may be returned or delayed.

3 Ship Your Item

  1. Package your item securely.
  2. Write your RMA ID and Authorization Number on the outside of the package.
  3. Ship to the address provided in your authorization email.
  4. Return to your RMA tracking page and fill in the "Submit Shipping Info" form:

Click "Submit Shipping Info". Your status will update to In Transit to Company.

4 Item Received — Confirm Your Return Address

Once your package arrives at the facility, your status updates to Received – Being Repaired and you will receive an email (and SMS if you provided a phone number) confirming that your item has been received and is being processed.

Confirm or Update Your Return Address

When you visit your RMA tracking page at this stage, you will see a "Confirm Return Shipping Address" form. Your original address is pre-filled. You can:

  1. Keep the address as-is — no action needed if the address is correct.
  2. Edit the address — type a new shipping address if you want the item sent somewhere else.
  3. Click "Use address on file" — to revert to your original submission address if you changed it.
  4. Click "Save Return Address" to confirm.
⚠️
You can only update your return address while the item is being processed. Once it ships back, the address cannot be changed.

5 Your Item Is Shipped Back

When your repaired item is on its way back, your status updates to In Transit to Customer and you will receive an email with:

Expected delivery: 3–5 business days.

6 Confirm Receipt & Close the RMA

  1. Open your RMA tracking page (link in your email).
  2. When you receive your package, click "Confirm Receipt".
  3. Your RMA status updates to Resolved.

You will receive a final confirmation email summarizing the resolution.

Tracking Your RMA

  1. Go to the RMA Manager homepage.
  2. Under "Track an Existing RMA", enter your RMA ID and Access Token (both are in your confirmation email).
  3. Click "Track RMA".

Your tracking page shows a live timeline of all completed and upcoming steps with timestamps.

Frequently Asked Questions

I didn't receive a confirmation email. What should I do?
Check your spam/junk folder. If it is not there, return to the homepage and use the Track form to verify your RMA was submitted using your RMA ID.
I lost my RMA ID or access token. How do I find them?
Search your email for a message with the subject "RMA Submitted." Your RMA ID and a tracking link are included in that email.
My RMA has been authorized but I'm not ready to ship yet. Is that okay?
Yes. You may ship when ready. Just remember to write both your RMA ID and Authorization Number on the outside of the package.
Can I update my shipping information after submitting it?
Contact the company directly and provide your RMA ID. They can update the record from the admin panel.
How long does the process take?
