2017-05-27 | Beijing

The Paediatric Nutrition Desk submitted a lobby letter on the implementing date of the registration requirements for the exported infant and young children formula milk powder products to the CFDA. The previous regulation on the grace period of the formula registration of the infant and young formula said that, from January 1st, 2018, products that are approved to be produced and sold in China or exported to China, shall be sold until the end of the shelf life. The Desk proposed to clarify that the implementing date of the new formula registration should refer to the date of the manufactured date of the exported infant formula, in line with the requirements for products manufactured in China.
