Manufacturers and sellers of full-size baby cribs in the United States
This is a federal safety standard that sets minimum requirements for the design, construction, and performance of full-size baby cribs to protect infants from hazards like entrapment, collapse, and sharp edges. All full-size baby cribs sold in the United States must meet the specific safety tests and measurements defined in this regulation.
Requirements
Cribs must meet structural strength and stability requirements
Crib components must not create entrapment hazards
Hardware, fasteners, and edges must be safe and secure
Mattress support systems must meet performance standards
Why it matters
Non-compliant cribs cannot be legally sold and violate federal law; selling unsafe cribs creates serious liability and legal penalties.
All TikTok Shop sellers listing baby and maternity products
To sell baby and maternity products on TikTok Shop, you must comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including CPSC and CPSIA requirements. Some products require pre-listing documentation review (like Children's Product Certificates or lab test reports), while others can be sold through standard category qualification. All products must meet safety standards, and sellers are responsible for understanding and complying with all relevant regulations.
Requirements
Products fall into two paths: General Products (standard category qualification for items like baby clothing, toys, bottles, diapers) and Designated Products (require compliance documentation for car seats, strollers, teethers, pacifiers, sleepwear, and similar items)
All products must comply with Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) and CPSC requirements
Sellers must ensure products meet choking hazard warning label rules for small parts where applicable
Sellers are responsible for understanding import and e-filing obligations specific to each product
Why it matters
Failure to meet these requirements can result in listing rejection, account restrictions, or legal liability—and non-compliant products pose safety risks to children.
Who this applies to
