Background

China’s pet food market continues to attract strong interest from overseas brands, driven by evolving pet ownership trends and increasing demand for diversified, high-quality pet nutrition products. However, entering this market requires more than commercial readiness. Companies must understand China’s regulatory framework for pet food, including product classification, ingredient compliance, labeling requirements, import procedures, and the role of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (MARA) in market access.

This webinar will provide a practical overview of the key compliance requirements for pet food products entering China, with a particular focus on MARA registration. It is designed to help pet food companies, exporters, regulatory affairs professionals, and market access teams better prepare their products and documentation before entering the Chinese market.
