Regulation Debriefing on GACC Overseas Manufactures Registration of Imported Foods
In April 2021, the General Administration of Customs in China (GACC) released Regulation on Registration Administration of Overseas Manufactures of Imported Foods (Decree 248) and Administrative Measures on Safety of Import and Export Food (Decree 249). Under these two Decrees, all companies importing food into China, especially the manufactures of imported foods, need to comply with the new requirements by Jan 1, 2022. To support the fluid registration of overseas manufacturers of imported foods, the European Chamber organises a series of training sessions focussing on ‘GACC Overseas Manufacturers’ Registration of Imported Foods’ on the registration rules as well as the registration system. The first session on October 17 provided a debriefing on both Decrees.
