CPSC eFiling Readiness and Certificate Data Control Kit
Why this exists

Mandatory eFiling makes certificate-data quality an import workflow problem.

CPSC's eFiling program took effect July 8, 2026 for importers of regulated consumer products subject to certification requirements. Importers must electronically transmit certificate information before products enter U.S. commerce. The operational challenge is assembling accurate product, certifier, rule, manufacturing, testing and records-contact data—and getting the right information to the filing path or customs broker.

The Syntera kit is an internal control layer for that work. It does not replace CPSC's Product Registry, official CSV template, API, ACE filing, or a customs broker.

Eight working tabs

  • Dashboard — live product, evidence, broker-handoff and readiness metrics
  • Certificate Master — product, certificate, certifier, manufacturer and Product Registry fields
  • Trade Parties — importer/certifier, manufacturer, testing lab, broker and records-contact information
  • Testing Evidence — lab reports, test dates, testing locations and supporting records
  • Rules & Exceptions — internal register for supported rule/citation and testing-exception information
  • Broker Handoff — shipment references, filing path, deadlines, identifiers and broker confirmation
  • Version Control — product, factory, testing, rule and certificate-data changes
  • Filing Readiness — final internal review of open evidence and data exceptions
Designed to sit upstream of the official filing tools.

CPSC provides its own Product Registry, CSV upload template and API specifications. This kit helps organize and review the source data and evidence before your team uses those systems or sends filing information to a broker.

Two filing paths create a coordination problem

CPSC explains that importers can use a Full PGA Message Set, providing the required certificate data elements for filing, or a Reference PGA Message Set that points to a certificate stored in the Product Registry using its Certifier ID, Product ID and Version ID. If your process involves a broker, those identifiers and supporting data must be communicated accurately and on time.

Product data has to survive the trip from source document to entry filing.

Control the certificate master

Keep identifiers, certifier information, manufacture data, testing records and source evidence tied to each finished product.

Coordinate with brokers

Track whether the shipment uses full certificate data or Product Registry references, what was sent, when it was due and what the broker confirmed.

Manage changes

Capture factory, testing, rule and product-version changes instead of discovering stale certificate data at shipment time.
