III. Processing Procedure
1. Document Preparation
Product images, instruction manual, material specifications
Packaging design draft (including age warning)
Material specifications of the projectile (soft projectile)
2. Selection of Institution
Choose a CPSC-accredited third-party laboratory (Dezeway CPC No.: 1552)
3. Sample Submission and Testing
Sample Quantity: Usually 5-10 finished products
Cycle: Routine testing takes approximately 5-7 working days
4. Report Issuance
After passing the tests, the laboratory will issue a test report.
The manufacturer or importer issues the CPC certificate themselves.
IV. Fees and Cycle

| CPC Issuance | Manufacturer self-issues (free)

V. Key Considerations
1. 1. Age Labeling: The packaging must clearly indicate the applicable age range. If not clearly labeled, it will be tested as if the child is under 12 years old.
2. Projectile Safety: The size of the projectiles must meet the specific requirements of ASTM F963 for projectile toys to avoid the risk of accidental ingestion.
3. Warning Labels: It is recommended to add safety warnings such as "Parental supervision is advised."
4. Amazon Specific Requirements: The product must also meet Amazon's compliance requirements to avoid the risk of listing removal.
