China: Nineteen National Food Safety Standards Open for Comments in China
On October 8, 2024, the People's Republic of China Food Safety Standards Monitoring and Evaluation Department of the National Health Commission (NHC) released a letter soliciting public comments on nineteen draft National Food Safety Standards. This report contains an unofficial translation of the letter and the list of draft standards. The announcement includes both new and revised national food safety standards covering the general rules for spices, limits for contaminants in foods, sterilized milk, food additives, water and fat content determination in foods, and testing of migration of chemicals in food contact materials and products. Stakeholders should conduct their own review of the regulation. Based on past experience, the PRC often notifies these texts to the WTO after the domestic comment period ends.
