Instructions for Completing CPSC Compliance Certifications
Certificates must specify the following, in English:
1. Citation to each CPSC product safety regulation to which the product is being certified (it is not acceptable to issue a
certification that offers only a “general compliance” statement). Some of our Certificate formats state the applicable
standards – check those that apply.
2. Style #: Identification of the product covered by the certificate (Must describe the product in enough detail to match
the certificate to the product – please include Purchase Order # if necessary).
3. Month and Year of Manufacture/City and Country or Administrative Region of Manufacture:
Provide date and place where the product was manufactured. If same manufacturer operates more than one location in
the same city, provide street address of the factory.
4. Date Tested/City and Country or Administrative Region where Tested: Provide date of test report and place where the
product was tested for compliance with the regulation(s).
5. Importer: Identification of the U.S. Importer or Domestic manufacturer certifying compliance of the product. See
below for specifics.
6. Third Party Testing Lab: Identification of any third-party laboratory on whose testing the certificate depends, if one
was used.
7. Individual Maintaining Results: Contact information for the individual maintaining records of test results. See below
for specifics.
