The full name of CPC is: Children's Product Certificate, which is the Children's Product Certificate. It is applicable to all products that are mainly used by children aged 12 and below. The testing items involved in different products are different. If the product is local in the United States The local manufacturer is responsible for providing it, and if it is produced in other countries, the importer is responsible for providing it.
If merchants want to sell products produced by Chinese factories to the United States, they need to provide a CPC certificate to the Amazon platform, otherwise the products will not be able to be sold.
The CPC certificate is not actually issued by any official organization, it is a product "guarantee" that is drafted by the manufacturer or importer and is responsible for it. It ensures that the product complies with all applicable local U.S. children's product safety regulations and other laws and regulations.
The product names are roughly as follows:
Children's products (related toys, clothing, decor, furniture, etc.), pyrotechnics, fluids, prefabricated walls, mattresses, bicycle helmets, motors, batteries, hair dryers, charging cables, bicycles, strollers, holiday lights, igniters, carpets, stoves , scarves and ties, other potentially flammable adult clothing accessories, etc.
