SKU Recall Search Certificate
One scoped FDA and CPSC search, with the exact identifiers, queries, returned records, and query time preserved in a buyer-ready receipt.
This is a search receipt, not a safety or compliance certificate. A no-match result says only that no matching record was found in the named sources using the supplied identifiers at the stated time. A database search can document its scope; it cannot prove a product was never recalled.
A recall-search receipt your review file can retain
$249 one time
For an import-compliance or catalog-operations lead at a U.S. retailer or importer. The fixed scope covers one SKU or one product family. We confirm the identifier bundle and source suitability before work begins, then deliver a PDF and CSV within two business days. There is no subscription and no renewal.
- Your supplied identifiers reproduced in the receipt.
- The exact query and parameters run against each source.
- The UTC time of each request and the records returned.
- A plain-language coverage statement and every search limit.
What the search covers
We search two public federal sources: the FDA Enforcement Report and the CPSC Recall API. The identifier bundle can include SKU, UPC or GTIN, brand, model, manufacturer, lot or batch codes, and other product names you provide. We preserve the bundle as supplied so a later reviewer can see what was searched rather than relying on an unexplained conclusion.
The receipt names both sources on every page. Returned records are reproduced as the agencies published them and are accompanied by query parameters and time. We do not silently broaden an identifier, infer that two similarly named products are the same, or convert an unavailable source into a zero-result search.
Official source documentation: FDA Enforcement Report information and definitions and CPSC Recall API information.
What a no-match result means
That sentence is the entire finding. It does not prove that the product was never recalled. It does not prove the product is safe. It does not prove compliance with a regulation, standard, retailer policy, or import requirement. It does not prove complete coverage of recall activity in those sources or anywhere else.
Recall records do not use one universal identifier. A notice may name a brand, model, lot, product description, or manufacturer without carrying your internal SKU or a UPC. The more complete the supplied bundle, the more ways the query can look for a possible match; no bundle removes the database and publication limits.
Timing and agency limits travel with the result
A firm's public notice or market action can precede FDA classification and posting in the Enforcement Report. The timestamp matters because a search can be accurate about what the database returned and still miss an action not yet posted. A later re-run is a separate order, never implied by the first receipt.
FDA and CPSC do not cover every product category, agency, jurisdiction, or recall program. Before accepting the order, we perform a source-suitability check. If the product belongs under another regulator or the two named sources are not sensible places to look, we decline the scope instead of selling an empty search.
How the order works
- Send the identifier bundle. Include every SKU, UPC or GTIN, model, brand, manufacturer, and lot or batch term available for the product.
- Confirm the search boundary. We state which product family, identifiers, and official sources are in scope before starting.
- Receive the receipt. The PDF and CSV arrive within two business days of scope confirmation, with results and limitations stated together.
