Frequently Asked Questions
What does 'Made in the USA' mean?
According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), a product can be labeled 'Made in USA' if all or virtually all of the product is made in the United States. This means that all significant parts and processing must be of U.S. origin, with no or negligible foreign content.
Is 'Made in the USA' legally regulated?
Yes. The FTC enforces Made in USA claims under Section 5 of the FTC Act. Companies making unqualified 'Made in USA' claims must meet the 'all or virtually all' standard. Qualified claims like 'Assembled in USA' have different requirements.
How can I verify if a product is actually made in the USA?
Look for specific manufacturing details on the company's website, check FTC enforcement actions, look for third-party verification, and contact the company directly. Our platform helps by collecting and displaying this information transparently.
What is the difference between 'Made in USA' and 'Assembled in USA'?
'Made in USA' means all or virtually all components and processing are domestic. 'Assembled in USA' means the product was put together in the U.S. but may contain significant foreign-made components.
