On July 26, 2016, China’s General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) published on its web site the Administrative Measures for the Inspection, Quarantine and Supervision of Imports of Aquatic Animals (AQSIQ Decree No.183). These measures went into effect on September 1, 2016, and replace the existing Administrative Measures enforced in November 2003 (known as AQSIQ Decree No. 44). A draft version of the measures was notified to the WTO on March 15, 2016 as G/SPS/N/CHN/17/Rev.1. The draft and final versions of the measures are practically identical. This report is an UNOFFICIAL translation of AQSIQ Decree No.183.
