## Quick answer

Since 8 July 2026, importers of consumer products that need a Children's Product Certificate (CPC) or a General Certificate of Conformity (GCC) must file that certificate's data electronically in CBP's ACE system at entry. The testing and certification duties are not new; they date from 2008. What changed is that the data now travels with every shipment, either in full or as a reference to a certificate stored in CPSC's Product Registry. Mail shipments follow on 22 October 2026 and Foreign Trade Zone entries on 8 January 2027.

## What ConformReady does

ConformReady checks what each product requires, organises and reviews the supporting evidence, flags missing or conflicting data, and keeps its CPSC record current as products, factories and suppliers change.

Your customs broker files the entry. We make sure the product behind it is ready. A broker transmits CPSC data to CBP. They are usually not the person deciding whether a test report matches the product, whether a factory change affects the certificate, or whether the evidence behind it is complete and current. That upstream record is what ConformReady manages.
