I believe that many sellers will encounter a problem in the process of operating their own stores, that is, the listings that they have worked so hard to edit become dogs.

The reason why listing has become a dog is the problem of "product certification". On a platform like Amazon, it is normal for products to require certification, but many sellers are unclear about which products require certification, which products do not require certification, and which products require compulsory certification.

Today, I will help you summarize, what are the common certifications at present!

01. American market

① FDA certification

The full name is "U.S. Food and Drug Administration Certification". This agency is specifically responsible for food and drug management in the United States. Its main responsibility is to ensure the safety of food, cosmetics, drugs and other products produced or imported in the United States.

If the seller wants to sell products in the above categories, it is best to ask if the supplier has FDA certification first!

② CPC certification

This certification is mainly the issuing agency of children's product certificates, which is specially responsible for testing the safety of children's products. If you want to list children's products on Amazon's North American site, you must provide the relevant children's product certificate. CPC certification is applicable to all children's products under the age of 12. If it is produced in the United States, it needs to be provided by the local manufacturer; if it is produced in other countries, it needs to be provided by the importer.
As an importer, cross-border sellers need to provide the corresponding CPC certificate if they want to list this type of product.

③ FCC certification

FCC certification is mainly aimed at computers, computer accessories, fax machines, electronic devices, radio equipment and other products that may harm personal safety. Mainly certified by the US Federal Communications Commission, which is responsible for the safety of radio and communication products. If the seller has the following products and wants to put them on the North American station, they all need to have FCC certification. 1) Personal computer and peripheral equipment;
2) Household electrical appliances, power tools;
3) Audio products, video products (radio, TV, home speakers, etc.);
4) Lamps (LED lamps, LED screens, stage lights, etc.);
5) Wireless products (Bluetooth, wireless remote control toys, wireless switches, etc.);
6) Security products (alarms, security products, access control, monitors, cameras, etc.).

④ UL certification

This certification is mainly aimed at the safety of power tools such as chargers, mobile power supplies, mobile phone batteries, lamps and so on. It is mainly carried out by the American Underwriters Laboratory, which is not only authoritative in the United States, but also an authoritative non-governmental organization in the world.

European market

① CE certification

CE is a safety mark certification, which can be said to be a passport for manufacturers to enter the European market. In the EU market, CE is a mandatory certification mark, and products produced in the EU or in other countries must pass CE certification before they can be freely circulated in the EU market. At the same time, as long as the products that have passed CE certification can be sold in the entire EU member states, they can be freely circulated throughout the EU. Whether it is communication equipment, electrical products, personal protective equipment, or toys, CE certification is required. Import inspections are also getting stricter.

② ROHS certification

ROHS certification is also a mandatory standard, the main purpose is to eliminate lead, mercury and other substances in electronic products.

Japanese market

① PSE certification

PSE certification is a mandatory safety certification for electrical appliances in Japan, and it is also a mandatory market access system in Japan. According to different products, PSE certification is divided into two types: diamond-shaped PSE mark and round PSE mark, mainly to distinguish "specific electrical appliances" and "non-specific electrical appliances".

② PSC certification

PSC is a mandatory safety certification applicable to all consumer products sold in Japan. According to relevant Japanese laws, consumer products must comply with certain product accident safety regulations and accident reporting requirements before they can be circulated in the market.
