Three sentences to solve the difficult problem of product compliance! If you want to set up a store on Amazon and start cross-border sales, product compliance is a key aspect that you can't afford to ignore. We have already discussed the series of product evaluation before opening a store, including product selection, profit calculation and other basic steps, now let's delve into how to ensure product safety to meet the compliance requirements of major selling countries.
For e-commerce entrepreneurs, product safety is not only a legal requirement, but also a basic prerequisite for protecting consumer rights. With regard to the safety of goods, different sites will formulate strict auditing standards according to the laws and regulations of the destination country to ensure product safety through both laws and regulations and technical guarantee.
Did you know? The definition of product safety includes conditions such as not causing death or injury, not causing damage to equipment or property, and not harming the environment. In short, a safe product must be free from unacceptable risks and eliminate factors that could lead to injury or loss.
In accordance with the policies and standards of different countries, Amazon requires products to pass safety audits and obtain certificates and reports before they can be placed on the shelves. This process may seem tedious, but it is crucial to the long-term development of the brand.
What is even more shocking is that the three major stations, the US station, the European station and the Japanese station, have different compliance requirements! The U.S. station mainly needs to pay attention to CPSC, FCC, FDA and other certifications; the European station needs CE, ROHS, WEEE and other certifications; the Japanese station should pay attention to PSE, ST and other certifications. These certifications are different processes, but they are necessary to enter the corresponding market.
For example, in the U.S., if you sell children's products, you must obtain CPC certification; if you sell electrical products, you need FCC certification; and food and medical products need FDA certification. Each certification has its own specific scope of application and application process. The U.S. also offers self-check resources such as the Regulatory Robot and the CPSC Recall Database to help sellers understand product compliance requirements.
For cross-border brands, the biggest boon is that Amazon officially provides CKP compliance reference tool to help sellers understand multi-national compliance requirements in one-stop. This tool has three major advantages: one-stop presentation of multiple types of compliance policies, no need to jump to register to see the requirements of multiple countries, and easy to operate and can be used directly on the seller platform.
Looking for a suitable import/export compliance service provider? Amazon has partnered with a number of third-party service providers in Taiwan to provide professional compliance services.
