I Can’t Complete Etsy Shop Setup Due to Ongoing Identity Verification Page Error

I’ve been trying to set up my Etsy shop for over two weeks now, but I keep hitting a roadblock at the identity verification stage. When I reach the step where I’m supposed to upload my ID, the page consistently throws an error and won’t load. This has made it impossible to complete my registration and open my store.

I’ve emailed Etsy and even tried contacting customer service through every available channel. No one has responded, and the problem still hasn’t been fixed. I expected much better from a global platform like Etsy.

What’s most frustrating is that there’s no update, no timeline, and no acknowledgment of the issue. I’ve wasted valuable time preparing to launch my products, only to be blocked by a technical glitch that Etsy seems unwilling to resolve.

If this continues, I’ll be forced to consider alternative marketplaces. If anyone has suggestions for reliable Etsy alternatives where handmade or unique goods can be sold, please let me know. But Etsy, you need to step up and fix this issue immediately—for me and for every other seller stuck in this broken verification loop.
