The year 2020 saw many significant regulatory updates in the Asia-Pacific region. In China drafts of several significant food regulations were released, such as the “Administrative Measures for Imported and Exported Foods Safety”, and “China Food Labeling Supervision Administrative Measures”. It is noteworthy that the regulation framework of health food in China was further completed and the administration is improved as well; in South Korea, the regulations of health functional food were updated and more novel food types were subject to supervision. New food labeling mechanism came into effect in Japan this year, and the FCM positive lists was also implemented.
Global food stakeholders need to stay vigilant so as to cope with frequent regulatory changes, effectively address compliance challenges, and aim for great success while shouldering their social responsibilities. Therefore, ChemLinked has prepared this webinar to provide an overview of revised and emerging food regulations in the Asia-Pacific region over the year and educate our clients on key regulatory points.
