Check which product rules apply in each market you sell in

Each rule shows the sentence from the law it comes from, a link to the source, the date we last checked that source and, when the rule has one, the date it takes effect. A result also lists what to do before you sell: a registration, test, label or notification. The six verdicts mean:

• BlockedThe product, as described, breaks a rule there, such as a banned substance or a limit it goes over. It can't be sold there until that's fixed.
• Action neededIt can be sold once you do the tasks listed: a registration, test, label or notification.
• Needs answersA law may apply, and a fact you didn't give us decides it. We name the fact we need. There's no quote yet, because no rule is settled.
• Partly checkedNo rule we check blocks it, but a law or product area that covers it there isn't checked yet, or we cover only part of the market. The result lists what we don't check.
• ClearNo rule we check applies on the date shown, and nothing that covers it is left unchecked. That doesn't mean the product is compliant.
• Not coveredWe have no rules for this industry in that market yet. That's a gap, never a pass, and there's no quote.

• Name the product your way, such as sunscreen, sofa or air fryer, or pick a category. The search maps it to the closest category we check. If nothing close is covered, it says so instead of swapping in something else.
• Pick one or more markets. A market where ClaraDB has no rules for that industry is marked not covered and reported, not guessed.
• Optionally paste the ingredient list from the pack or formula sheet. We check any ingredient that is on a list we track. Where a rule depends on a fact you did not give, the result names the fact instead of assuming it.

• It is information taken from the law, not legal advice. A Clear verdict does not mean the product is compliant; it means no rule we check applies on the date shown and nothing that covers the product is left unchecked.
• The rules are written by AI from the law and have not been reviewed by a lawyer or regulatory expert. Every quote is tested to match our saved copy of the law exactly.
• We never guess facts from a product's name. If a rule turns on a fact, such as the materials or the size of your business, the result asks for it.
• Rules are current as of a date. A law can change after we last checked it, so look at each source's last-checked date.
• Partly checked and Not covered are gaps, never a pass, and they show no quote because there is no rule text behind them.

How a rule gets in and how we test it is on the methodology page. When we last checked each source is on the status page. Found a wrong rule, date or quote? Use the corrections page.
