In September 2015, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) released for public comment the Draft Administrative Measures for Importers’ Review and Inspection on Overseas Establishments that Export Food Products to China. The draft measures instruct importers of certain products to review relevant documents and conduct on-site inspections of foreign establishments from which products are sourced. Specifically, products subject to these measures are infant formula products, food for special medical uses, health food, meat, fresh and frozen seafood for direct consumption, rice, bulk vegetable oil.
