China: Food and Agricultural Import Regulations and Standards Country Report

This report presents regulations and standards applicable to food and agricultural imports, including changes to existing standards. In 2021, China released several regulations and standards, including the revised Administrative Measures on Import and Export Food Safety, revised Regulations on the Registration and Administration of Overseas Producers of Imported Food, regulations overseeing variety registration of major crops and the safety assessment of agriculture GMOs, and the full text of the National Food Safety Standard of Maximum Residue Limits for Pesticides in Food (GB 2763-2021). Given the dynamic nature of China’s food regulations, U.S. exporters should verify the full set of import requirements with their China-based representatives or customers prior to shipping.
