CPC for travel cribs

Travel Cribs designed or marketed primarily for children 12 and under are children’s products: they need third-party testing at a CPSC-accepted laboratory and a Children’s Product Certificate citing crib/play yard related requirements as classified plus CPSIA chemicals, plus tracking labels. The importer or US manufacturer issues the CPC — not the factory and not the lab.

Rules sellers cite for travel crib

  • Travel cribs/play yards must be classified correctly — mislabeling as “crib” vs “play yard” causes testing errors.
  • CPSIA Section 101 total lead content in accessible materials.
  • 16 CFR Part 1303 lead in paint and surface coatings where coated.
  • CPSIA Section 103 tracking labels on product and packaging.

Testing focus and certification

Confirm classification with the lab before quoting. Structural and mattress/fit issues dominate failures.

Book a CPSC-accepted lab for the exact rules, then issue the CPC in your importer name citing the report. Keep certificate and report together for at least five years.
