Test reports, age warnings and import inspection processes for products under the Toy Safety Regulation.
Related HS chapters
Chapter information is indicative; the actual obligation depends on the product's function.
Toys are among the product groups with the highest physical inspection rate in product safety controls. Chemical safety, mechanical and physical properties, flammability and small-part risk are each assessed separately. Inspection tightens noticeably for products intended for children under 36 months.
