  1. If the registrant just created the registry, it may not be searchable yet.
    • Wedding registries are searchable 15 minutes after creation. [1]
    • Baby registries are searchable anywhere from one to six hours after creation. [2]
    • Gift registries, including Birthday, Graduation, Holiday, and Housewarming registries, are searchable 24 hours after creation. [3]
  2. 2
    Not all registries are searchable. If the registry owner marked their registry as Private or Shared, you won't be able to search for it until they change the privacy level to Public. Contact the registry owner and ask them to share it with you directly.
  3. 3
    If the list owner is a child, search for the parent's name. If you're trying to find a baby registry or a child's gift list on Amazon, search for the parent's name instead of the child's name. [4]

  1. Unlike baby registries, wedding registries, and gift lists, it's not possible to search for wish lists on Amazon. [5] If someone created a wish list instead of a gift list or registry, you can ask the person to share their wish list URL with you. If the person you're shopping for doesn't know how to share their wish list, here are simple steps they can follow:
    • Mobile app:
      • Tap the person icon at the bottom and select Your Lists .
      • Tap the wish list you want to share.
      • Tap Invite at the top.
      • Tap View only . Alternatively, if the intention is that you'll both be adding items you want to the same wish list, select View and edit instead. [6]
      • Choose a sharing option, such as Email to send it via email, or Text Message to text the wish list address.
    • Computer:
      • Hover your mouse cursor over "Accounts & Lists" at the top of Amazon.com.
      • Select the list you want to share under "Your Lists."
      • Click Send list to others at the top-right.
      • Click View only . Alternatively, if the intention is that you'll both be adding items you want to the same wish list, select View and edit instead. [7]
      • Select Copy link to copy the link to the clipboard and paste it anywhere. Or, to send the link via email, tap Invite by email .
