Extension of the Date by Which Neck Floats Must Be Tested and Certified Subject to the Submission of Samples

Короткий зміст

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) is announcing that the Commission is extending, by 60 days, the date by which manufacturers (including importers) of neck floats must comply with the third party testing and certification requirements for children's products under the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA). The extension is being provided because the Commission has determined that there is an insufficient number of third party conformity assessment bodies accredited by the Commission to permit testing and certification of neck floats by the effective date of June 15, 2026. To be eligible for this extension, manufacturers (including importers) must submit a sample of the finished product, intended for sale, to the Commission. This extension for third party testing and certification does not apply to any other requirements of the neck float final rule. All neck floats within the scope of the neck float final rule must be sold in compliance with all other requirements of that rule as of June 15, 2026, the effective date of the final rule.
