Text
The Commission voted to approve an update to
16 CFR part 1110
(
90 FR 1800
) that revises the certificate requirements for both products that are domestically manufactured and products that are imported:
Scenario
Effective Date
Domestically manufactured
July 8, 2026
Imported, general
July 8, 2026
Entered from Foreign Trade Zone
January 8, 2027
Details on the updates to the certificate content requirements can be found in the
Federal Register
notice linked above. The current requirements for certificates can be found on our
CPC business guidance page
and
GCC business guidance page
.
In addition to the updates to certificate content, all importers of a consumer product subject to CPSC’s certification requirement must electronically file (eFile) the certificate data as of the effective dates noted above. The eFiling requirement for imported shipments does NOT apply to products that are domestically manufactured; however, manufacturers of such products must comply with the certificate content updates. For more information, visit our
eFiling guidance page
