On January 17, the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) jointly issued a Circular on Pilot Measures Concerning the Record-filing of Non-special-purpose Cosmetic Imports in Shanghai’s Pudong New Area (see circular in Chinese). The pilot measures will be valid from March 1, 2017 to December 21, 2018.
2017年1月17日，国家食品药品监督管理总局、质检总局于联合 发布了《关于在上海市浦东新区试点实施进口非特殊用途化妆品备案管理有关事宜的公告》（《公告》具体内容详见此处）。试点措施将于2017年3月1日至2018年12月21日内施行。
The Circular is a long awaited document that was under discussion between the two ministries from the beginning of 2017. It suggests some flexibility to import these types of cosmetics via Pudong. After half month of implementation, some European cosmetics companies have already benefited from this pilot project.
此《公告》的内容自2017年初即在国家食品药品监督管理总局和质检总局间反复讨论，是一份期待已久的文件，为企业通过浦东新区口岸进口相关类型的化妆品提供了一定的便利。该政策经过半个月左右的施行，已有一部分欧洲化妆品企业从中获益。
The European Chamber Shanghai Chapter is delighted to invite officials of Drug and Cosmetics Safety Supervision Division of the Pudong Market Supervision Bureau, to present the new measures to the members. They will also answer questions from audience and explain key points during the implementation process.
