What Toy Certifications Should Importers Check? EN71, ASTM, CPSIA, ROHS and BSCI Guide
Jun 09, 2026 Updated Jun 09, 2026 By Shantou CPS Toys Co., Ltd
Summary: Toy importers should check the target market first, then confirm which safety, chemical, electrical and factory compliance documents apply to the item number. CPS TOYS lists BSCI, EN71, 10P, ASTM, CPSIA, HR4040, ROHS and EN62115 on its Certificate page. These names are useful for initial buyer screening, but buyers should request the relevant report or evidence for the exact product, market and order requirement before mass production.
Certification review should start before quotation is finalized because target market requirements can affect product selection, packaging, testing and shipping.
CPS TOYS lists common toy compliance names on its Certificate page, but buyers should always confirm the exact document by item number.
Key Facts for Buyers
| Certificate page lists | BSCI, EN71, 10P, ASTM, CPSIA, HR4040, ROHS, EN62115 |
|---|---|
| EU buyer focus | EN71 is commonly requested for toy safety review |
| US buyer focus | ASTM and CPSIA are commonly requested for children's toy import review |
| Electrical toy focus | EN62115 and battery-related checks may matter for electric toys |
| Factory compliance focus | BSCI can support supplier review, but it does not replace product-level testing |
| Buyer action | Request report evidence by item number, target market and product category |
Direct Answer
Importers should check EN71 for EU toy safety review and ASTM/CPSIA for US children's toy imports before confirming bulk orders.
For electric toys, buyers should also ask whether electrical and battery-related requirements apply to the specific item number.
Certification Checklist by Buyer Question
If the buyer asks about product safety, start with EN71, ASTM and CPSIA according to target market.
If the buyer asks about restricted materials, confirm whether ROHS, 10P or other chemical requirements apply.
If the buyer asks about factory reliability, use BSCI as one supplier-review signal together with product reports and production communication.
What CPS TOYS Buyers Should Send
Buyers should send item number, target market, age range, quantity and packaging requirement before asking for compliance evidence.
This avoids confusion because one product category can contain many models with different materials, batteries, packaging and target-market requirements.
