Summary
New requirement: automotive lighting sellers must submit clear photo of DOT marking on product or packaging. Marking must be visible and legible on product or packaging itself.
Why it matters
Sellers of automotive lighting (headlights, brake lights, turn signals, fog lights) now must provide documentary proof of DOT compliance via photo. Failure to submit qualifying photo blocks category qualification and listing approval.
Recommended action
Sellers with pending or approved automotive lighting listings should audit current product photos. If DOT marking photo is not already submitted, obtain clear image of marking and resubmit via Qualification Center before next compliance review.
Photo of Department of Transportation (DOT) Marking on Product or Packaging
The marking may appear directly on the product or on the packaging.
The marking must be clearly visible and legible.
