Custom Sunglasses for Global Eyewear Importers
Every country sells sunglasses under its own rules. Our market guides translate compliance standards, import duties and logistics into a clear sourcing plan — so your program clears customs and lands on shelf on time.
One factory, every major market
LumiShades has supplied custom and private-label sunglasses to importers, eyewear brands, distributors and promotional buyers in 60+ countries since 2009. Our manufacturing in Wenzhou — China's eyewear capital — is FDA-registered, ISO 9001-certified and BSCI-audited, and every order can be certified to the standard your destination market demands: CE EN ISO 12312-1 for Europe and the UK, ANSI Z80.3 for the United States, and AS/NZS 1067 for Australia and New Zealand.
Compliance is only half the job. Landed cost, HS-code classification, tariff exposure and transit time differ sharply by market, and a mistake on any of them can erase your margin or miss your season. The guides below distil what we have learned shipping millions of pairs a year into practical, market-specific advice. Pick your destination to see the applicable standard, duty and logistics detail — then talk to us about your program.
Market-by-market sourcing guides
Five destination guides covering compliance, duties and lead time for the markets our buyers ask about most.
United States
The world's largest sunglasses market. Lenses are FDA-regulated for impact resistance (21 CFR 801.410); ANSI Z80.3 conformance is expected by major retailers. We cover Section 301 tariffs and trans-Pacific transit.
View market →United Kingdom
Post-Brexit the UK uses UKCA marking alongside CE for sunglasses to BS EN ISO 12312-1. We explain UKCA/CE acceptance, UK import VAT and duty, and fast routes for promotional and retail programs.
View market →European Union
Sunglasses are PPE under EU Regulation 2016/425 and must carry CE marking to EN ISO 12312-1, with REACH-compliant materials. We supply the technical file inputs and Declaration of Conformity support.
View market →Australia
Australia enforces the mandatory AS/NZS 1067 standard with five lens categories and strict labeling. We test and label to category, and advise on the high-UV climate that drives demand for category 3 lenses.
View market →Canada
Canada accepts ANSI Z80.3 / ISO 12312-1 testing and requires bilingual English/French labeling under the Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act. We cover CUSMA origin and northern-route logistics.
