Abstract

On January 8, 2025, in consultation with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) issued a final rule to revise the agency's regulation for Certificates of Compliance (certificates). The final rule contained two "effective dates" for products subject to the final rule based on how products were manufactured or imported into the United States. CPSC is making a technical correction to the DATES section of the final rule because the Office of the Federal Register requires one "effective date." The corrected final rule will contain one "effective date" for the final rule and two "applicability dates" based on how products are manufactured or imported into the United States. This technical correction has no substantive effect on the dates by which products subject to the final rule must be in compliance.

CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION

16 CFR Part 1110

[CPSC Docket No. 2013-0017]


Certificates of Compliance; Correction

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On January 8, 2025, in consultation with U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection (CBP), the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission 
(Commission or CPSC) issued a final rule to revise the agency's 
regulation for Certificates of Compliance (certificates). The final 
rule contained two ``effective dates'' for products subject to the 
final rule based on how products were manufactured or imported into the 
United States. CPSC is making a technical correction to the DATES 
section of the final rule because the Office of the Federal Register 
requires one ``effective date.'' The corrected final rule will contain 
one ``effective date'' for the final rule and two ``applicability 
dates'' based on how products are manufactured or imported into the 
United States. This technical correction has no substantive effect on 
the dates by which products subject to the final rule must be in 
compliance.

DATES: As of September 23, 2025, the effective date of the final rule 
published at 90 FR 1800 on January 8, 2025, is July 8, 2026.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kat Rickerson, eFiling Program 
Specialist, U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, 4330 East-West 
Highway, Bethesda, MD 20814; telephone 240-429-4257; email: 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#cbae8da2a7a2a5acb8bebbbba4b9bf8ba8bbb8a8e5aca4bd"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8de8cbe4e1e4e3eafef8fdfde2fff9cdeefdfeeea3eae2fb">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission is making a technical 
correction to the DATES section of the final rule. This correction has 
no substantive effect on the dates by which products subject to the 
final rule must be in compliance. The final rule revises the 
requirements for certificates of compliance (certificates) in 16 CFR 
part 1110. 90 FR 1800. The final rule applies to importers, domestic 
manufacturers,

[[Page 45918]]

and private labelers who are required to issue certificates for 
consumer products and substances \1\ regulated by CPSC that are 
imported for consumption or warehousing into the United States or are 
distributed in commerce in the United States. The final rule contained 
two effective dates, one effective date of July 8, 2026, for all CPSC 
regulated consumer products and substances subject to the final rule 
and required to be certified, except for products and substances 
imported into a foreign trade zone (FTZ) and subsequently entered for 
consumption or warehousing. The final rule provided additional time for 
CPSC regulated products imported through an FTZ to comply, stating an 
effective date of January 8, 2027.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Section 14(a) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA) 
requires that manufacturers, including importers, and private 
labelers issue certificates for all consumer products subject to a 
consumer product safety rule under the CPSA, or a similar rule, ban, 
standard, or regulation under any other law enforced by the 
Commission, that are imported for consumption or warehousing or 
distributed in commerce. 15 U.S.C. 2052(a)(11)-(12); 15 U.S.C. 
2063(a)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Because the Office of the Federal Register requires one effective 
date for inclusion of the regulatory text of the final rule into the 
Code of Federal Regulations, in this document, CPSC is correcting the 
DATES section of the final rule to contain one effective date, July 8, 
2026, and two applicability dates. For all CPSC regulated consumer 
products and substances subject to the final rule that are required to 
be certified, except for products imported through a foreign trade zone 
(FTZ), the final rule is applicable on July 8, 2026. For CPSC regulated 
products and substances imported into a foreign trade zone (FTZ) and 
subsequently entered for consumption or warehousing, the final rule is 
applicable on January 8, 2027. Accordingly, this correction has no 
substantive effect on the dates by which the subject products must be 
in compliance with the final rule.

Correction

    In FR Rule Doc. No. 2024-30826 appearing on page 1800 in the 
Federal Register of Wednesday, January 8, 2025, the following 
correction is made: DATES: [Corrected]
    1. On page 1800, in the first column, in the first and second 
sentences of the DATES section, replace the word ``effective'' with 
``applicable''.
    2. On page 1800, in the first column, add the following sentence to 
the beginning of the DATES section: ``The Final Rule is effective on 
July 8, 2026.''

Secretary, United States Consumer Product Safety Commission.
