eFiling is a US CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) initiative under which importers of regulated consumer products will electronically file (eFile) data from a Certificate of Compliance with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) via a Partner Government Agency message set.

The scope of eFiling includes General Certificate of Conformity (GCC) for products intended for adults, such as Apparel, Mattresses, Cigarette Lighters, and Children’s Product Certificate (CPC) for products intended for Children/Infant such as Toys, Sleepwear, and Juvenile Furniture. 

Each GCC and CPC certificate requires a minimum of seven key information to identify the product for compliance: 

  1. Information identifying the product
  2. List of all applicable CPSC rules that product meets
  3. Contact Information of Importer of Record or Domestic Manufacturer
  4. Contact Information of the individual/person maintaining the test results 
  5. Date and Place of Manufacture
  6. Date and Place of Product Testing 
  7. Contact Information of the Third-Party Lab conducting the testing

There are three options to eFile into the CPSC’s product registry which include direct online entry for each individual product, bulk import through .csv file and electronic data transfer through API (Application Program Interface) integration. 

Intertek participated in CPSC's eFiling Beta Pilot and is ready to support our customers to eFile seamlessly through our best-in-class InterLink 2.0 platform which is integrated with CPSC’s product registry.
