Suggestion: Factory sellers can initially prioritize North American sites. The region is large and demand for health products is strong; European stations with EU certification capabilities can be deployed simultaneously.

Foot baths and health stickers are in the Health & Beauty (Health & Beauty) or Health Care (Health Care) category. Amazon has strict compliance review requirements for such products, which are mainly reflected in the following dimensions:

🔴 1. Product Claims Restrictions
This is the easiest place to step into a hole. Amazon strictly distinguishes the following two types of claims:
● Permitted Claims (Structure/Function Claims): Describes the general effects of the product on the structure or function of the body, such as “helping to relax foot muscles”
● Prohibited Claims (Disease Claims): Claims that the product can treat, prevent, or cure diseases such as “treating arthritis” and “eliminating inflammation”
⚠️ Health stickers and foot bath packs must not be claimed to have medical benefits in the listing; otherwise, they will face the risk of being removed from the listing or account.

🔴 2. Product category attribution and review
According to the composition and function of the product, foot bath packs/health stickers may be classified into the following categories, each with different requirements:
● Health & Beauty (Health & Beauty): General health products, which must meet basic safety standards
● OTC drugs (Over-the-counter): If the product contains medicinal ingredients, it may be classified as OTC and additional qualifications are required
● Medical Devices (medical devices): If the product claims to have medical functions, it may trigger a medical device review

🔴 3. Ingredient compliance requirements
Different target regions have different regulatory requirements for product ingredients:
● US region: must comply with relevant FDA regulations; products containing Chinese herbal medicine should pay special attention to ingredient labeling
● Europe: Subject to EU Cosmetics Regulation or related product safety regulations, CE certification may be required
● Japan region: Must comply with the relevant regulations of the Japanese Pharmaceutical Machinery Law (Pharmaceutical Machinery Act)

🔴 4. Labelling and packaging requirements
● The product label must be in the language of the target region (if sold to the US, an English label is required)
● The ingredient list, instructions for use, and warnings must be fully labeled
● No unverified claims of efficacy shall appear
