In October, 2016 was issued by the Ministry of Customs and Trade with the aim of determining the principles for the safety and free movement of toys. According to this regulation, all products that children under the age of 14 use while playing are covered by this regulation, irrespective of whether they are intended for gaming purposes only or even for gaming purposes. Products that do not fall within the scope of the regulation are listed separately in the annex of the regulation (Annex 1 - products that are not considered as toys according to this regulation).

The introduction of such an application is the chemical substances contained in the substances in which the toys are produced or the dyes present thereon. According to the Regulation, children's health and safety must not be compromised by toys.

Toys analysis in authorized laboratories is carried out on the basis of legal regulations in force and standards published by domestic and foreign organizations. The main standards considered in this regard are:

• TS EN 71-2 Toy safety - Part 2: Flammability
• TS EN 71-3 ... Chapter 3: Migration of certain elements
• TS EN 71-4 ... Chapter 4: Test kits for chemistry and related activities
• TS EN 71-5 ... Section 5: Chemical toys outside the test sets
• TS EN 71-7 ... Chapter 7: Finger paints - Properties and test methods
• TS EN 71-8 ... Section 8: Physical activity toys used at home
• TS EN 71-9 ... Chapter 9: Organic chemical compounds - Specifications
• TS EN 71-10 ... Chapter 10: Organic chemical compounds - Sample preparation and extraction
• TS EN 71-11 ... Chapter 11: Organic chemical compounds - Analysis methods
• TS EN 71-12 ... Chapter 12: Nitrosamine and Nitrosatable substances
• TS EN 71-13 ... Chapter 13: Scented board games, cosmetic kits and taste games
• TS EN 62115 Electric toys - Safety
• TSE CEN / TR 15071 Toy safety - National translations of warnings and instructions for use in the EN 71 series

In particular, TS EN 71-3 standard, toy parts and toy materials used in the parts of lead, arsenic, antimony, barium, chromium, mercury, aluminum, boron, cobalt, copper, manganese, nickel, strontium, tin and zinc, selenium and cadmium migration characteristics and test methods. Toys must in no way contain heavy metals above the limit values ​​in these standards.

According to the above-mentioned regulations, all toys placed on the market must bear the CE mark. Toys with CE marking are accepted to comply with the principles of this regulation. The principles for the CE marking on the toys are laid down in the CE Marking Regulation. This regulation regulates the conformity assessment modules explaining the methods of placing the CE mark on the products and the principles for using the CE mark.

Before producing these toys, companies must make all physical, chemical, mechanical and electrical tests and analysis of flammability, hygiene and radioactivity hazards that may be caused by the toy and evaluate the possibility of encountering these hazards.

The contribution of toys to the development and education of children is indisputable. However, the fact that toys carry health risks is a serious problem. On the one hand, toy consumption increases from year to year but unfortunately unhealthy products also increase. Since toys are not manufactured in accordance with legal regulations and standards, they carry great risks for children's health. In this case, both the production under the stairs and the irregularly realized imports have a large share. The scents, paints and materials used in these toys threaten children's health. In this respect, the importance of toy analysis in authorized laboratories is very important.
