Update time : 2025-12-09

Against the backdrop of the booming cross-border e-commerce industry, Amazon, as a world-leading e-commerce platform, has imposed increasingly stringent requirements on product safety and compliance.

UL (Underwriters Laboratories) standards, globally recognized as the benchmark for safety certification, are not only the access threshold for the U.S. market but also serve as the core basis for Amazon’s product review.

Products that fail to pass the corresponding UL standard tests may face listing removal at best, or even trigger legal disputes and consumer trust crises at worst.
