Amazon toys products generally need to provide the following information during review:
1. Patents
Amazon is notoriously harsh in its penalties for infringement in order to protect the intellectual property of product patent owners. Therefore, during the review, any required patent licenses or certificates must be submitted.
2. Provide different information according to the subcategories of different toy categories
Art toys
Paints, crayons, canvases, etc. need to be provided with LAHAMA certification in accordance with ASTM D4236, and the "comfort to ASTM D4236" logo needs to be printed on the packaging and products.
Electric toys
Remote control toys require FCC certification, electronic products require FCC-VOC certification, and wireless products require FCCID certification
Small items and toys
Must be printed with the label “Choking Hazard - Small Item, Not For Children Under 3 Years Old”.
3. Security certification
The packaging must include an age label and a traceability code. Because toy products are mainly targeted at children, Amazon has different requirements for toy safety certification for different sites.
-Amazon Europe:
Toy products exported to Amazon Europe need to prepare EN71 test reports in advance. Otherwise, if there is a customs inspection, it will take about a month to get the results, which is time-consuming and there is a high possibility that both the goods and money will be lost.
-Amazon US:
Toy products exported to Amazon US need to be tested for flammability and must provide a CPC certificate, also known as the Children's Product Certificate, which is a certificate of product compliance testing and must be inspected and issued by the US-recognized CPSC agency.
