CPC certification is a children's product safety certificate applicable to all products primarily targeted at children aged 12 and under. Amazon.com requires all children's toys and products to provide a CPC certificate. The process for obtaining a CPC test report required for selling pullback cars on Amazon is as follows:
I. Core Requirements for CPC Test Reports
1. Applicable Laws and Standards
- ASTM F963-17: US Toy Safety Standard (Physical and Mechanical Properties, Flammability, Chemical Toxicity Testing).
- CPSIA: Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (Lead content ≤100ppm, Phthalate ≤0.1%).
- Small Parts Warning: If detachable small parts are included, a "Choking Risk" label must be included (applicable to children under 3 years old).
2. Testing Items
| Test Categories | Examples of Specific Content
| Physical Properties | Sharp Edges, Protruding Parts, Tensile Strength Test
| Chemical Toxicity | Lead, Cadmium, Phthalate, and 8 Other Heavy Metals
| Labeling and Warnings | Age Labeling, Manufacturer Information, Tracking Labels
II. Application Process (5 Steps)
1. Selecting a CPSC Accredited Laboratory
- Qualification Check: Passed (e.g., Dezeway CPC No.: 1552).
- Domestic Alternative: Some Chinese laboratories (e.g., Dezeway CPC No.: 1552) are CPSC authorized, saving 30%-50% in costs.
2. Sample Submission and Testing
- Sample Requirements: Provide 2-3 pieces of the final product (including packaging and instructions).
- Testing Cycle: Regularly 5-7 working days, expedited service can be reduced to 3 days (cost increases by approximately 50%).
3. Obtain the Test Report
- Report Content: Must include product description, applicable regulations, test results, and laboratory stamp.
- Frequently Asked Questions: If the test fails (e.g., phthalates exceed the limit), the materials must be modified and resubmitted for testing.
4. Issue the CPC Certificate
- Self-Signing: Manufacturers or importers should fill out the form according to the template ((DEZEWCPC No.: 1552)). No third-party stamp is required.
- Required Information:
Product Name: Children's Pullback Car (Model XXX)
Manufacturer: XXX Company (Address + Contact Information)
Suitable Age: 3 years and above
Compliance Standards: ASTM F963-17 + CPSIA
Testing Laboratory: XXX (Institution Number)
5. Submit for Amazon Review
- Entry: Seller Central → “Add New Product” → “Upload Compliance Documents”.
- Review Time: Usually completed within 48 hours, may extend to 5 days during peak season.
III. Cost and Timeframe Reference
| Item | Cost Range | Timeframe
| Testing Fee (Basic Testing) | $500-$800 | 5-7 Business Days
| Expedited Testing | +$300-$500 | 3 Business Days
| CPC Certificate Production | Free (Self-Issued) | Instant
IV. Key Considerations
1. Product Detail Compliance
- Rebound Mechanism: Spring power components must pass torque/tension tests to prevent detachment and the generation of small parts.
- Paint Coating: Lead content testing is mandatory (a common non-compliance item).
2. Labeling Example
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.
Manufacturer: ABC Toys, 123 Main St, US
Batch No.: X2025-11
3. Amazon's Frequently Asked Audit Points
