San Diego Amazon kids-product importer setup
What San Diego importers set up first
- Importer-of-record details that match the CPC certifying party.
- CPSC-accepted lab quotes for each children’s ASIN family.
- A dated CPC vault so annual toy revalidation is planned, not panicked.
- Company registration for lab intros and factory sourcing under one entity.
Local ops, federal rules
Southern California logistics help with speed to FBA; they do not replace testing or certificates. Keep broker-ready fields consistent across invoice, packing list, and CPC.
Questions people ask
Do I need a lab inside San Diego?
No. Any CPSC-accepted lab for your rules works. Many brands test near the China factory and retest in the US when Amazon deadlines are tight.
Can my agency manage this?
Yes — agencies can register seats and keep client CPC vaults organized while you remain the certifying importer.
