Rechargeable toys refer to toys that require energy to be obtained through charging. These types of toys usually have built-in rechargeable batteries that are charged through an external power source for toy operation. Exporting rechargeable toys to the United States requires ASTM F963 certification, which is a standard specification for the safety of children's toys developed by the American Federation of Materials and Testing (ASTM).


The process for processing the ASTM F963 certification standard for exporting rechargeable toys to the United States generally includes the following steps:

1. Understanding the ASTM F963 standard: Firstly, you need to have a detailed understanding of the requirements of the ASTM F963 standard, including provisions on physical and mechanical properties, combustion performance, and chemical properties.

2. Product testing: Send the charging toy to an approved third-party testing agency for testing to ensure that the product meets the requirements of ASTM F963 standard. Testing may involve impact testing, drop testing, combustion testing, heavy metal migration, and total lead content testing.

3. Preparation of application materials: According to the requirements of the certification agency, prepare application materials, including product manuals, technical specifications, testing reports, etc.

4. Submit application: Submit the application materials to the certification agency and pay the corresponding application fee.

5. Review and Evaluation: The certification agency will review and evaluate your application materials, and may contact you for more information or product sampling.

6. Obtaining certification: If your charging toy meets the requirements of ASTM F963 standard, the certification agency will issue you with an ASTM F963 certification certificate.


ASTM F963 certification cycle in the United States:

The processing period for exporting rechargeable toys to the United States for ASTM F963 certification is generally 5-7 working days. This cycle is under normal procedures and does not include any delays that may be encountered.
