Rules certified to

16 CFR 1110.11(a)(2)

State each consumer product safety rule under the CPSA, or similar rule, ban, standard, or regulation under any law enforced by the Commission, to which the finished product(s) are being certified. Finished product certificates must identify separately all applicable rules, bans, standards, or regulations.

What has to be present

  • Every applicable rule, ban, standard or regulation, identified separately

The paragraph asks for each applicable rule to be identified separately. Blanket wording such as complies with all applicable CPSIA requirements identifies nothing, and a citation to a part that does not exist cannot be a citation to a rule the product is certified to. These are the same data elements that get eFiled into ACE at entry.

What the shape looks like

Illustrative constructions, written to show what the regulation asks for. They are not quotations from real certificates.

Satisfies the element

16 CFR Part 1250 (Safety Standard for Toys); 16 CFR Part 1303 (Ban of Lead-Containing Paint); 15 U.S.C. 1278a (lead content limits)

Falls short

Complies with all applicable CPSIA requirements

A statement that everything is complied with identifies no rule at all, so nothing has been stated separately.
