Amazon Policy for Water Delivery Products: Ensuring Lead-Free Compliance with NSF

October 22, 2025
NSF provides independent compliance verification services for water delivery products sold on Amazon, helping sellers meet regulatory requirements and protect public health.

Ensuring safe water delivery products on Amazon

To safeguard consumers, Amazon enforces strict policies for products intended to deliver potable water—used for drinking, cooking, food preparation, dishwashing and oral hygiene. These products include:

  • Fixtures (receptacles or devices connected to the water supply).
  • Plumbing fittings (controls for water flow/volume).
  • Pipes (conduits/tubing).
  • Pipe fittings (connecting pieces).
  • Joining materials (solder, flux and sealants used in plumbing installation or repair).

Certification requirements

Under Amazon’s policy, sellers must ensure that all potable water delivery products are tested and certified as “lead-free” by an accredited ANSI certification body, such as NSF. Products that do not meet this requirement are prohibited from being sold on Amazon.

Amazon requires that all water delivery products have been tested to and comply with either of the standards listed below:
