A three-stage governance system—strict pre-import approval, rigorous inspection and quarantine during import, and stringent post-import oversight—facilitates the smooth entry of food products and ingredients into the Chinese market.

Imported food products undergo five core inspection stages:

 

1. Conformity Assessment: Evaluation from national systems to corporate qualifications

 

2. Designated Ports and Inspection Sites: High-risk foods like meat/seafood must use “dedicated channels”

 

3. Port On-site Inspection: Seven key inspection points require attention

 

4. Chinese Labeling Management: Prepackaged foods must meet labeling requirements

 

5. Non-Compliance Disposition: Safety-related issues result in immediate return shipments
