What is Amazon DV (Direct Validation)?

Recently, to ensure product safety and compliance, Amazon has required that all toys category products must undergo Direct Validation (DV) through Amazon-recognized Testing, Inspection and Certification (TIC) bodies. This requirement covers major Amazon sites in the United States, Canada, and Europe.

Under this policy, sellers can no longer upload compliance documents by themselves. Instead, test results are submitted directly to Amazon by TIC laboratories. Failure to complete validation, or results showing non-compliance with Amazon’s policies, may lead to product removal or delisting.

In this high-standard, time-sensitive compliance model, testing services are no longer a “supplementary step,” but a critical process integrated into the entire product launch workflow.

Since Amazon sets strict entry requirements for TIC partners, only laboratories with proven expertise and strong performance capabilities are selected. CMA Testing is proud to be recognized by Amazon as a qualified TIC laboratory to provide DV (Direct Validation) services, a testament to our commitment to compliance excellence and testing quality.

CMA Testing – Your Compliance Partner for Amazon

As an Amazon-recognized TIC laboratory, CMA Testing provides:

  • Comprehensive toy compliance testing services across multiple categories
  • Global regulatory support, including REACH, RoHS, PFAS, CPSIA, FDA
  • One-stop technical documentation support (DoC preparation, labeling review, packaging compliance)

On August 20, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) published the updated restriction proposal on PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). The update was prepared by authorities from Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden, based on the evaluation of over 5,600 scientific and technical comments received during the 2023 consultation.

Key highlights:

  • Expanded assessment to 8 additional sectors, including printing, sealing, machinery, certain medical uses, military, explosives, technical textiles, and broader industrial applications.
  • Considered alternative restriction options—beyond a full ban—for areas such as manufacturing, transport, electronics & semiconductors, energy, sealing, machinery, and technical textiles.
  • The proposal may be further revised based on ECHA committees’ opinions.

This update reflects the EU’s strengthened regulatory approach to PFAS. Companies should closely monitor compliance requirements and prepare for potential substitution measures.
