Before you use the checklist
What the resource can and cannot do
01Does the checklist confirm every requirement?
No. It helps structure an initial review. Applicable requirements depend on the product category, intended use, claims, construction, users, states, sales route, and current rules.
02Does ConforIQ certify or approve the product?
No. ConforIQ provides guidance, evidence planning, and coordination support. Decisions and certificates remain with the relevant authorities, laboratories, certification bodies, or other qualified parties.
03What should I prepare before requesting a review?
Bring product specifications, images, intended use, claims, target states and channels, available reports, labels, supplier records, and the launch decision your team needs to make.
