TIC (Testing, Inspection, and Certification) Services
Third-party Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC) services are essential for ensuring that products meet specific regulatory standards and requirements. Vendors must utilize these services annually to verify compliance.
- Process: Initiate a request via the Product Compliance platform. Once initiated, a TIC provider will send a quote with timelines for testing. Upon acceptance, they coordinate testing details and require sample submissions.
- Result Submission: After testing, results are shared directly with Amazon for product approval.
- Providers: Various approved TIC providers such as Eurofins, NSF, and SGS offer these services across different product categories to support compliance efforts.
- Appeals: Vendors can appeal a compliance requirement by submitting a request with supporting comments for review.
This process is crucial for vendors to maintain compliance and continue selling their products on platforms like Amazon.
