Blue: a filing. Striped: a sales ban (faded if it starts later). Outlined: a label rule. Select a state to jump to it.
Minnesota
Minnesota's law (Amara's Law, Minn. Stat. 116.943) requires a report for every product sold in the state that contains intentionally added PFAS, in any amount. It is the broadest of the four.
Who files
The manufacturer: the company that makes the product or whose brand name is on it. If the maker has no US presence, the importer or first US distributor files. A consultant can file for you through PRISM's "Associations" feature, but you remain responsible.
Which products
All products with intentionally added PFAS, with narrow exemptions. Products manufactured before July 1, 2023 are excluded under a 2026 amendment. Some categories are already banned rather than reported: since January 1, 2025, cookware, ski wax, upholstered furniture, textile furnishings and several other categories with intentionally added PFAS can't be sold in Minnesota.
What the report contains
Brand name, product model and a product code (SKU, UPC or similar)
For each part that contains PFAS: the chemical (CAS number, or total organic fluorine where the specific PFAS isn't known), its function, and a concentration range
Products that differ only by color, size or finish can be grouped
After the first report
Updates are due each February 1 when you add products, change them significantly, or learn new information. For the first cycle, Minnesota said it would accept the data collected to date, with your due-diligence efforts documented. The rule expects you to keep records for five years after a product leaves the supply chain.
What the law says
The dutyMinn. Stat. 116.943, subd. 2(a)
“…a manufacturer of a product sold, offered for sale, or distributed in the state that contains intentionally added PFAS must submit to the commissioner information that includes…”
The statute set January 1, 2026. Minnesota moved the first deadline to September 15, 2026.
“The commissioner or county board may issue orders assessing penalties up to $25,000 for violations identified during an inspection or other compliance review.”
The same law generally forgives a penalty once the violation is corrected, unless it's repeated or serious (subd. 5). Filing late but promptly is far better than not filing.
Washington's Safer Products rule (WAC 173-337) requires an annual report to the Department of Ecology for specific product categories, starting January 31, 2027. It also bans PFAS in ordinary apparel from January 1, 2027.
Which products are reported
Apparel intended for extreme and extended use
Footwear: boots, sandals, shoes and water shoes
Gear for recreation and travel
Ski waxes, including spray and rub-on waxes and tuning products
Cookware and kitchen supplies
Also automotive waxes, floor waxes and polishes, hard surface sealers and firefighting gear
Only products manufactured on or after January 1, 2026 are included. The rule doesn't define "extreme and extended use" or "recreation and travel" gear, which matters for outdoor brands. We'll update this page when Ecology clarifies them.
Ordinary apparel is banned, not reported
From January 1, 2027, apparel and accessories with intentionally added PFAS can't be sold in Washington (for products made from that date). Extreme-use apparel, footwear and recreation gear move to reporting instead.
How Washington decides
For these categories, Ecology presumes PFAS were intentionally added when total fluorine tests above 50 ppm. You can rebut that with a statement backed by credible evidence, such as supplier declarations.
What the report contains
Each intentionally added PFAS by name and CAS number
The product category, the component that contains it, and its function
A concentration range: under 100 ppm, 100 to 500, 500 to 1,000, 1,000 to 5,000, 5,000 to 10,000, or 10,000 ppm and above
Your company's contact details
The report repeats every January 31, and you resubmit even if nothing changed.
What the law says
The dutyWAC 173-337-110(6), (7), (8), (12), (16)
“The manufacturer must provide notice that the priority consumer product described in (a) of this subsection contains intentionally added PFAS.”
“(A) By January 31, 2027. (B) Annually thereafter by January 31st.”
The same wording appears for extreme-use apparel, footwear, recreation and travel gear, cookware and ski wax.
Over 50 ppmof fluorine in a test and the state presumes the PFAS was added on purposeWAC 173-337-110
Every yearthe report repeats each January 31, even if nothing changedWAC 173-337-060(4)
The penaltyRCW 70A.350.070(1)
“A manufacturer violating a requirement of this chapter, a rule adopted under this chapter, or an order issued under this chapter, is subject to a civil penalty not to exceed five thousand dollars for each violation in the case of a first offense. Manufacturers who are repeat violators are subject to a civil penalty not to exceed ten thousand dollars for each repeat offense.”
New Mexico's PFAS Protection Act and rule 20.13.2 NMAC require a report for products sold in the state with intentionally added PFAS, due January 1, 2027, followed by phased sales bans.
Which products
Any product, including components, with intentionally added PFAS. The big exemption for our clients: products containing solid fluoropolymers, such as PTFE nonstick coatings and ePTFE membranes, are exempt from both reporting and the bans. Side-chain fluorinated water repellents and fluorinated ski waxes are not exempt.
Bans that follow
January 1, 2027: cookware, food packaging, dental floss, juvenile products and firefighting foam
January 1, 2028: textiles (including leather), ski wax, fabric treatments, cosmetics, cleaning products, carpets and upholstered furniture
January 1, 2032: all products with intentionally added PFAS, unless granted an exemption
What the report contains
A product description with a UPC, SKU or other code
The purpose of each PFAS, its CAS number and its amount, as an exact figure or a range
Manufacturer and contact details
The rule asks for documentation verifying analytical method results. Whether supplier data alone satisfies that is an open question with the New Mexico Environment Department; we'll update this page when it's answered.
Labeling is on hold; reporting is not
A federal court blocked New Mexico's labeling requirement on September 16, 2026. Reporting and the phased bans were not affected, according to published analyses of the ruling.
What the law says
The dutyHB 212 (2025), Section 5(B)
“On or before January 1, 2027, a manufacturer of a product sold, offered for sale, distributed or distributed for sale in the state, directly or indirectly or through intermediaries, that contains an intentionally added per- or poly-fluoroalkyl substance shall submit to the department the information required…”

Connecticut's Public Act 24-59 has required written notice to the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, and a product label, before selling covered products with intentionally added PFAS since July 1, 2026. There are no extensions.
Which products
Apparel (which explicitly includes footwear, handbags and backpacks), carpets and rugs, cleaning products, cookware, cosmetics, dental floss, fabric treatments, children's products, menstruation products, textile furnishings, ski wax and upholstered furniture. Outdoor apparel made for severe wet conditions needs a "Made with PFAS chemicals" label instead of a notice. Tents aren't listed.
What the notice contains
A brief product description, its category and the purpose of the PFAS
CAS numbers, and the amount or range of each PFAS by weight
Manufacturer and contact details
Products can be reported by category. The notice is a fillable form emailed to DEEP with an $800 fee.
What comes next
From January 1, 2028, all twelve categories, plus outdoor apparel for severe wet conditions, are banned in Connecticut if they contain intentionally added PFAS. Retailers can't sell products that haven't been notified.
What the law says
The dutyPublic Act 24-59, Sec. 1(b)(1)
“On and after July 1, 2026, no person shall manufacture, sell, offer for sale or distribute for sale in this state any (A) apparel; … (D) cookware; … (K) ski wax; … if such product contains intentionally added PFAS, unless the manufacturer of the product provides prior notification in writing to the department…”
The Act also requires a label on these products from the same date (Sec. 1(c)). There are no extensions.
“No person shall sell, offer for sale or distribute for sale in this state any of the products listed in subdivision (1) of this subsection if the product contains intentionally added PFAS, and the manufacturer has failed to submit notification pursuant to this subsection.”
These states don't want a report for these products, but they ban PFAS in some of them or require a label. A ban means the product has to be PFAS-free to sell there, so your suppliers' answers matter just as much.
