1., Let's talk about the CPSIA bill Speaking of the CPC certificate requirements, the Security Improvement Act begins with the CPSIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act Regulation) signed by Bush on August 14,2008. The Act is the harsh Consumer Protection Act (CPSIA / HR4040) since the establishment of Consumer Goods Safety (CPSC) in 1972. The content of CPSIA can be mainly divided into two parts: Part for the safety of consumer goods, divided into eight sections: Section 101: Lead products with products: Lead paint paint paint Section 102: Mandatory third-party testing for certain children's products Section 103: Tracing the labeling of children's products Section 104: Standards and consumer registration of type nursery products Section 105: Identification requirements for toy and game console advertising Section 106: Mandatory Toy Safety Standards Section 107: Study of preventable minority childhood injuries and deaths related to consumer goods Section 108: To prohibit the sale of certain products containing phthalates The second part is mainly related to the legal provisions formulated to strengthen the work of CPSC in the United States, which can further standardize the CPSC's implementation of consumer goods safety monitoring work. The CPC certificate mentioned here is the certificate drafted after the product passes the test required by the CPSIA regulations. Next, let's learn about CPC information in detail.

2. Who is the CPC?

The CPC certificate is not actually issued by any agency.

The CPC certificate and the supporting test report are in English. The CPC certificate is based on the third-party laboratory test results approved by the CPSC. If the product is locally produced in the United States, the local manufacturer provides the CPC; if it is produced in other countries, the importer provides the CPC. In other words, cross-border sellers, as "importers", want to sell products produced by Chinese factories to the United States, they need to provide CPC certificates to Amazon as a retail / distributor.
