Jul 01, 2024
Sadie Shen
Among the 14 proposed standards under consultation, this article especially introduces key changes in the new draft of GB 7718. 
As the fourth consultation draft of GB 7718, the new draft is quite different from the current version and its three previous drafts. 
Some specific labeling requirements will be separately stipulated in the Administrative Measures for Supervision of Food Labeling.

On June 27, 2024, National Health Commission (NHC) announced to seek public comments on 14 national food safety standards. These include four product standards, five food additive standards, three operation and hygiene criteria, one testing standard, and notably, the GB 7718 General Standard for the Labeling of Prepackaged Foods. Stakeholders are invited to submit their feedback online for the GB 7718 until July 10, 2024. For the remaining standards, comments are encouraged up until August 26, 2024.

Now the GB 7718 and Administrative Measures for Supervision of Food Labeling are concurrently open to the public for comments. They will work in coordination to effectively manage food labeling. For the interpretation of the draft of the Measures, please refer to the following article:
