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.

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
