Amazon's January 2026 mandate requires every dietary supplement ASIN to carry an ISO 17025-backed COA validated by an approved TIC provider. We generate that COA — complete, accredited, and ready for submission.
Amazon began enforcing its dietary supplement testing policy in January 2026. Listings without a compliant COA are subject to suppression. Here's what the mandate covers.
Testing must be performed by a laboratory accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 by a recognized accreditation body. Prodigy Labs holds accreditation (pending PJLA certification) — the standard Amazon's approved TIC providers recognize.
Your ISO 17025 COA must be submitted to and validated by an Amazon-approved TIC (Testing, Inspection & Certification) provider such as Certified Laboratories, NSF, Eurofins, or Intertek before listing approval.
Label claim verification (active ingredient % of stated amount) and ingredient identity confirmation via HPLC or FTIR. Required for all supplement categories.
TAMC, TYMC, and pathogen screening (Salmonella, E. coli O157, Staphylococcus aureus) per USP <61> and <62>. Required for all supplement categories.
Arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury per USP <232>/<233> by ICP-MS. Required for all supplements; particularly critical for botanical and herbal products.
Aflatoxins (B1/B2/G1/G2) and ochratoxin A for high-risk botanical ingredients sourced from Asia, Africa, or South America. 200+ pesticide panel per USP <561> for botanicals and herbals.
From raw ingredient to Amazon-approved listing — this is the path every supplement seller must follow under Amazon's 2026 requirements.

accreditation (pending PJLA certification) is the standard Amazon's approved TIC providers require. Our accreditation number appears on every COA we issue.
ILS Labs and Qalitex do not offer mycotoxin testing. For botanical supplement brands selling on Amazon, this panel is increasingly required — and we're the only local ISO 17025 option.
Unlike ILS and Qalitex, we publish our pricing. No forms to fill out before you find out what it costs. We believe pricing transparency builds trust.
Pesticide residues and mycotoxins run in-house on our Sciex 4500 triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer — the gold standard platform for multi-residue analysis in dietary supplements.
Our COAs include an explicit Amazon compliance note, accreditation (pending PJLA certification) number and scope, and all partner-lab disclosures per ISO 17025 §6.6 — exactly what TIC providers need to process your submission.
Full bundle including partner-routed microbiology and heavy metals. Rush processing available. We know Amazon listing suppression costs real revenue — we move fast.
Since January 2026, Amazon requires all dietary supplement ASINs to be tested by an ISO 17025 accreditation pending laboratory and validated by an Amazon-approved TIC provider. Required panels typically include identity/potency, pesticide residues, heavy metals (As, Cd, Pb, Hg), mycotoxins for botanical products, and microbiology. The COA must cite the lab's accreditation number and scope.
Yes. Prodigy Labs is ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation pending pending, which is the accreditation standard Amazon's approved TIC providers require. Our COAs cite our accreditation number on every report once certified. All major Amazon-approved TICs (Certified Laboratories, NSF, Eurofins, Intertek) accept ISO 17025 PJLA COAs.
The standard Amazon FBA supplement panel includes: active ingredient potency/identity, microbiology (TAMC, TYMC, Salmonella, E. coli O157, Staph aureus), pesticide residues (200+ analytes, USP <561>), heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury per USP <232>/<233>), and mycotoxins (aflatoxin B1/B2/G1/G2, ochratoxin A) for botanical and herbal products.
Our standard turnaround for the full Amazon-Ready COA Bundle is 7–10 business days from sample receipt. Rush processing (5 business days) is available on select panels. Contact us to discuss your timeline needs.
No. We serve Amazon FBA supplement brands across the US. Samples can be shipped to our San Diego facility with standard overnight courier. Our ISO 17025 accreditation (pending PJLA certification) is recognized nationwide.
Pricing is tiered by matrix: $795 for powder, capsule, and tablet forms; $995 for liquid, softgel, and gummy forms; and $1,195 for botanical extracts and herbal products. All tiers cover the full panel required for Amazon TIC submission — potency, mycotoxins, pesticides, heavy metals, and microbiology. Unlike most labs, our pricing is publicly listed — no registration required. Volume pricing is available for brands testing 5+ SKUs per quarter.
A basic COA reports test results. An Amazon-Ready COA includes your ISO 17025 accreditation number and scope, explicit §6.6 disclosure for any subcontracted partner-lab panels, an Amazon compliance note stating the COA meets TIC provider submission requirements, and covers all the analyte panels Amazon's approved TICs check against.
