Which CPSC certificate do I need?

Pick your product type. We show the CPSC rules that likely apply, whether you need a General Certificate of Conformity (GCC) or a Children's Product Certificate (CPC), and whether a CPSC-accepted lab has to test it. Free, no sign-up.

Designed or intended primarily for children 12 or younger?

For example 9503.00. We only use the first 6 digits. Your broker handles the full classification.

Likely requirements for all-terrain vehicles (atvs), including youth models

General information based on CPSC's published rule lists, not legal advice and not a compliance determination. Your lab, broker or attorney confirms what applies to your exact product.
Whether this is a children's product decides the certificate type. CPSC defines a children's product as one designed or intended primarily for children 12 years of age or younger (16 CFR part 1200).

Certificate type

Depends on whether it is a children's product

If it is designed or intended primarily for children 12 or younger, you need a CPC with third-party testing. Otherwise a GCC applies when a rule covers it.

Third-party testing

Depends on the answer above

You can rely on your own or your manufacturer's testing, as long as it supports each rule you certify.

Rules that apply to every product in this category

Notes for this category

16 CFR 1420 (ANSI/SVIA 1-2023 for ATVs made on or after Jan 1, 2025). Youth ATVs are children's products, but off-highway vehicles are exempt from the CPSIA lead limit (15 U.S.C. 1278a(b)(5), listed as an eFiling exemption code).

Next: build the certificate and get your three Registry IDs

CertPrepy turns your lab report into a certificate, checks it against the Registry's rules, and gives your broker the Certifier ID, Product ID and Version ID.
