Taiwan to Revise Regulations for Application of Health Food Registration

Oct 30, 2023
Sadie Shen
The proposed Regulations requires separate documentations for health foods manufactured by different manufacturing plants in different stages, to demonstrate compliance with good manufacturing practice standards of each plant. In cases where different buildings within the same manufacturing plant are involved in the production, a floor plan of the plant area should also be submitted.

The draft adds the registration contents of the health food permit, specifically including the ingredients with health functions (i.e., quality indicators) and their contents, product shelf life, and storage conditions.

On October 20, 2023, Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) announced the proposed amendment to the Regulations for Application of Health Food Permit. The revision involves the registration review rules, document requirements and online platforms. Any feedback can be submitted within 60 days from October 20, 2023.

In Taiwan, health food refers to food with health functions, and is labeled or advertised with such functions. Manufacturers and importers of health food should follow the Regulations for Application of Health Food Permit. They need to apply to the central competent authority for product registration and obtain the health food permit before engaging in manufacturing or importing activities.
