CPSC Proposes Amending GCC Rules


Importers:  Did you know that the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has proposed to amend the existing rule on the General Certificate of Conformity (GCC)?


Amendments including the requirement for the electronic filing of GCCs for regulated imported consumer products with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at the time of filing the CBP entry, or the time of filing the entry and entry summary, are just some of the proposed amendments. 
Not keen on this idea?  You are in luck! 
 The CPSC recently voted to hold a workshop and seek additional public comments on aspects of its proposed rule on Certificates of Compliance, which the Commission first published on May 13, 2013.

Interested parties are invited to participate in, or attend the workshop, and to submit written comments.

The workshop will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday, September 18, 2014 in the CPSC Hearing Room, 4th Floor of the Bethesda Towers Building, 4330 East West Highway, Bethesda, MD 20814.

Registration is now open using the following link, where you can also read the  formal notice by CPSC:
