All require ingredient-declaration labels, nutritional-adequacy statements and traceability; the US has no pre-market approval, while Canada/Mexico require establishment registration.
🧸 Pet Product Standards
US retailers typically require CPSIA/ASTM F963 toy limits; Canada uses the CCPSA and Toys Regulations; Mexico applies NOM-110-SCFI-2000. Electrical pet devices need relevant safety certification in each country.
