CPSC eFiling mandatory since Jul 8, 2026

CPSC eFiling for Shopify merchants

Unlike Amazon, TikTok Shop, Shein, or Temu, Shopify is a storefront platform, not a marketplace -- it has no compliance-document intake, no listing gate for regulated categories, and no visibility into your import paperwork at all.

Free CPSC eFiling readiness check

Paste your store URL and your top product's HTS code. Get a preliminary readiness estimate with specific gaps to check before you file — no login required.

Don't know your HTS code? Most sellers don't — leave it blank and we'll estimate one from your product URL.

Preliminary automated estimate, not a compliance determination. Storefront-visible input only — no admin login, no data scraped from your store in this preview.

Not ready to run the checker? Join the founding cohort — $79/mo locked forever for the first 25 businesses that sign up.

What Shopify sellers need to track

No platform safety net

Shopify never asks for a CPC, GCC, or lab test report before you list a product. That means there is no second check catching a compliance gap before it becomes a held shipment -- the responsibility sits entirely with you and your customs broker.

Direct-import stores carry the full eFiling burden

If you import CPSC-regulated inventory yourself (rather than drop-shipping through a marketplace with its own compliance layer), your eFiled certificate data is the ONLY compliance check your shipment gets before CBP release.

Multi-channel Shopify + marketplace sellers

If you sell the same SKU on Shopify and on Amazon/TikTok Shop, your compliance data needs to be consistent everywhere -- a certificate that satisfies one platform’s upload requirement should be the same certificate your broker eFiles for every channel’s inbound shipments.

Why this matters more for Shopify than for marketplace sellers

Marketplace sellers at least get a document-upload prompt as a reminder. Shopify merchants get none -- the first signal of a gap is often a held container. Run your top products through EntryProof’s free checker before that happens.
