GCC- General Certificate of Conformity (GCC)
Rules Requiring a General Certificate of Conformity (GCC) - General Use/Non-Children's Products
Manufacturers and importers of general use products (i.e., non-children’s products) for which consumer product safety rules apply, must certify in a General Certificate of Conformity (GCC) that their product(s) comply with all applicable rules. A manufacturer or importer of such a product must support its GCC with records from a test of each product or a reasonable testing program.
Below is a list of rules that require the issuance of a GCC. See our webpages on reasonable testing programs andGCCs for more information.
Note 1: The use of CPSC-accepted testing laboratories to conduct required testing is not a requirement for general use, or non-children’s, products. First party testing, or testing from any qualified laboratory or test facility, can support a GCC.
Note 2: Certain regulations contain product-specific requirements outlining a reasonable testing program and the responsible party in the supply chain specifically responsible for issuing the GCC. Consult the list of those regulations here: Rules Requiring Third-Party Testing.
