Some HTS codes covering bicycle helmets are on CPSC's eFiling flagged-code list, under the category "Bicycle Helmets." A flagged code means an electronic certificate is required for entry under that code -- it does not by itself say which certificate a specific product needs.
Bicycle helmets are certified against a single standard, 16 CFR 1203, which sets impact-attenuation, coverage, and labeling requirements. Unlike categories that split across several standards depending on the product's specific features, a helmet sold for bicycle use is checked against this one rule regardless of size, material, or price point.
The free Certificate Requirement Check gives a product-level answer -- which standards apply, which are excluded, and whether the result points to a certificate or a disclaim -- based on the specific product's own attributes, not just its HTS code.

Verdicts in this report are produced by deterministic code, not by a language model. The explanatory paragraph accompanying each check is model-generated and checked against the cited sources before delivery. No part of this report is reviewed by a person before it is issued, so every material finding and citation should be confirmed against the underlying government source before it is relied on.
This report reflects data available as of the report date. The OFAC SDN and Consolidated lists, the other U.S. Consolidated Screening List constituents, the UFLPA Entity List, CBP withhold release orders, CPSC's eFiling list, and regulatory guidance are updated frequently and without prior notice. Users should re-screen periodically and consult qualified counsel for compliance decisions.
Name-similarity results do not establish or rule out the identity of any company. Where multiple similarly named records exist, none should be treated as confirmed without independent verification against the primary government source.
This tool is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or a substitute for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Consumer Product Safety Commission, or any other government agency. No warranty is made as to the accuracy, completeness, or currency of any finding.
Use of this report for import, procurement, sanctions-compliance, or investment decisions is at the user's own risk. Anyone with compliance obligations under UFLPA, OFAC, or CPSC regulations should consult qualified legal counsel before making a transactional decision.
