As we all know, Amazon places a high emphasis on product safety and compliance in its stores. For instance, children's toys and baby products exported to the U.S. must obtain CPC Certification and CPSIA reports to be sold on cross-border e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Temu, and eBay.

 

Recently, Sellers Should Note:

Amazon has started scrutinizing the authenticity of CPC certificates. If Amazon suspects a certificate is forged, the store’s selling privileges might be revoked.

Why is Amazon Scrutinizing CPC Certificates?

Some sellers may have used fake certificates obtained from certain service providers, leading to failed sales applications and subsequent resubmissions after modifications. Amazon has discovered this loophole and has begun thorough checks.

 

*China JJR Lab Reminds:

Ensure you choose a laboratory with IEC 17025 accreditation for testing. If you don’t have a suitable lab, you can contact China JJR Lab, an IEC 17025 accredited laboratory, to provide the relevant tests.

 

What to Do If Amazon Deems Your Certificate Fake?

Amazon requires submission of valid evidence within 7 days. If you are found using a fake certificate, immediately verify the situation with your supplier and expedite a genuine CPC certification report from a qualified testing institution. Submit the authentic certificate for review. If the review is passed, there is no issue; if not, you need to write an appeal letter.
