CPC or GCC? The 2-minute decision flow
Companion to Guided Imports moving China-to-US freight and prepping FBA for hundreds of small importers. This is the certificate check their clients can run before the goods ship.
What happens next
Once you know the certificate type, your customs broker files the data with CBP on your entry (mandatory for CPSC-regulated products since July 8, 2026 — 16 CFR 1110). The certificate is the what; the broker is the how.
Your broker handles the filing
Guided Imports prepares and files the certificate data with your entry — no 1USG warnings, no holds, no “where's the certificate?” emails.
This decision flow is free, needs no signup, and stores nothing — built by EntryReady with Guided Imports. It is a first-step tool, not legal advice; your broker or a compliance professional confirms the final filing.
