Summary
Motorcycle helmet sellers (manufacturers, importers, repackers) must now submit Certification of Compliance or Conformity (COC) documents issued within 2 years, matching product category and tested standards, with accredited lab details.
Why it matters
Manufacturers and importers selling motorcycle helmets face new documentation burden. Missing or invalid COC submission will trigger category qualification rejection, delisting, or account deductions. This closes a compliance gap in the prior version.
Recommended action
Audit current motorcycle helmet listings for COC documentation. Obtain valid COC from accredited labs showing 49 CFR 571.218 and Snell M-2010/M-2015 compliance. Resubmit to category qualification if previously approved without COC.
