On August 7, 2024, the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration announced enhanced inspection measures for products from the U.S., Chinese mainland, and Vietnam under four specific CCC codes. These measures were prompted by repeated non-compliance found in previous inspections of products from the same origins and under the same CCC codes. The measures will be in effect from August 12, 2024, to February 11, 2025.
