Any item containing small parts that could be swallowed or inhaled by young children requires choking hazard labeling. This includes toys, promotional items, assembly kits and certain household goods. Examples include the choking hazard under 5 label and the small parts not for children under 3 sign. Requirements are detailed by the CPSC under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act.

Labels should be placed on the front or primary display panel of a product package and positioned where shoppers and caregivers can clearly read them before purchase. For example, signs like the choking hazard small parts sign can also be used in retail and storage areas. CPSC offers placement recommendations for consumer products on its website.
