Published Date: 9/26/2025
Notice
Summary
The Consumer Product Safety Commission is asking to keep collecting info about third-party testing of kids' products to make sure they stay safe. This affects companies that test toys and other children’s items, and the current approval lasts until September 30, 2025. No big changes or costs are coming, just a smooth extension to keep safety checks going strong.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.
Third‑Party Testing Info Collection Extended
If your company tests children’s products (for example, toys), the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has submitted a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to extend approval to collect information about third‑party testing. OMB's current approval will expire on September 30, 2025; CPSC published a notice on July 11, 2025 and received one public comment in support. The agency says no big changes or new costs are expected, so current reporting stays in place for now.
Continued Safety Checks for Kids' Products
If you have children, CPSC has asked OMB to extend collecting information about third‑party testing of children’s products so safety checks can continue. OMB's current approval expires on September 30, 2025; CPSC published its notice on July 11, 2025 and received one supporting comment. The extension request is intended to keep existing safety oversight in place without major changes.
