On May 7, 2025, China National Health Commission (NHC) approved six new food additives. This approval list includes two enzyme preparations, one food additive with expanded usage scope, one processing aid with expanded usage scope, one food nutritional fortification substance with expanded usage scope and one food additive with added quality specification requirements.
In China, one of the key compliance points for food import is that the food product only contains permitted food additives. In addition to permitted food additives listed in GB 2760, China National Health Commission (NHC) proposes and approves new food additives through separate notifications. This article tracks and collects the updates on China food additives in 2025, including newly approved and newly proposed ones.
