Amazon's children's product marking and labeling requirements in one article

Children’s products are defined as consumer goods primarily intended for, or designed for children aged 12 or younger. Children’s products are regulated by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission and must comply with a series of federal children’s product safety rules. Manufacturers and importers of children’s products must provide consumers with a registration card and a permanent identification label (usually referred to as a “tracking label”) on the product and its packaging to provide specific identification information.

• The company website and brand name; and

• The manufacturer code, distributor code, or serial number.

• The production date and place (city, state, administrative region or country/region)
