CPC Certificate for Board Games

• CPC Certificate for Board Games

Children's Product Certificate (CPC) is applicable to products that are designed and primarily intended for children 12 years of age or younger. If they are produced locally in the United States, the manufacturer is responsible for providing them. Production in other countries is provided by the importer.

Manufacturers and importers of Children’s products must certify, in a written Children’s Product Certificate (CPC) based on test results from a CPSC-accepted laboratory, that their Children’s products comply with applicable Children’s product safety rules. 

Failure to do CPC certification may lead to

1. If the U.S. Customs randomly inspects the goods and finds that the goods are target products, customs detention will be initiated and will not be released until CPC certification is submitted.

2. If Amazon detects it, it might first be forcibly removed from the shelves, and will not be reinstated until the submitted CPC passes review.

CPC certification must contain several pieces of information, mainly:

1. Product information

2. Applicant information

3. US importer information

4. Production date and manufacturer's name and address

5. Testing standards (US regulations, and standards)

6. A CPSC-accredited third-party laboratory that performs compliance testing required for certification.

7. Test date and address
