A customer wants to make a bulk order but the seller wants to split up the order
into smaller orders due to splitting up the shipping, is there a way to do so?

Why do they want to split it? Seems it would be cheaper in one shipment.

If the order has more than 30kg it may be problematic.

To the OP, I do that now and then with no issues, but always talk/agree with
the Buyers previously and send screenshots of the parts they are going to get
within each package/shipment for easier checking.

It might cost more as one package because of the Dimensional Weight.

Can the seller simply send in multiple packages?

On occasion, I have shipped out large orders in multiple separate packages. There
is nothing you really need to do on BrickLink except maybe add multiple tracking
numbers to the order details. As a courtesy, you may want to let the buyer know
how many packages they will be receiving.

I would definitely let the buyer know that there is more than one package and
I would include a note in each box saying "Package 1 of 2" for example.

"but the seller"

Are you implying that this is on behalf of another seller or are you referring
to yourself but mistakenly used an incorrect personal pronoun?

Cheers ...
