10 June 2026
Beginning July 8, 2026, importers of regulated consumer products will be required to electronically submit certificate data through the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission’s eFiling program at the time of entry.
The eFiling initiative will require specific elements from a product’s Certificate of Compliance to be transmitted to U.S. Customs and Border Protection through the Partner Government Agency (PGA) message set in ACE. This change affects most imported consumer products that are subject to a CPSC rule, ban, standard, or regulation. Products entering a Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) will be subject to the same requirements beginning January 8, 2027.
Benefits of eFiling: Reduced hold times and fewer examinations for certified products, reduced risk scores with CPSC, and easier data management for certified products.
Importer Responsibility: Importers are responsible for product certification. As the broker, we cannot certify products for our clients and can only transmit the data provided by the importer to CPSC through our filing systems.
Products Impacted: CPSC has published a list of HTS classifications that may require reporting (click here for the full list). Not all commodities are affected, and our team can run a report comparing your commodities against the CPSC list. Products must be certified if they are finished goods, subject to CPSC regulations or bans, or imported for consumer use.
To help businesses identify potential product safety obligations, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) offers its Regulatory Robot, an interactive tool designed to provide guidance on federal product safety requirements that may apply to specific consumer products, including children’s products.
The Regulatory Robot guides users through a series of questions to help identify key regulations, testing requirements, certification obligations, and other product safety considerations that should be reviewed before manufacturing or importing products into the United States. Because compliance requirements vary based on product type, intended use, and target consumer, businesses should complete the assessment for each individual product.
While the Regulatory Robot is a valuable starting point, it does not replace a comprehensive compliance review. OIA Global’s trade compliance and customs experts can help businesses understand regulatory requirements, manage import compliance obligations, and navigate the complexities of bringing products to market safely and efficiently.
Access the CPSC Regulatory Robot to begin evaluating your product’s potential compliance requirements.
