Food Additives in China: Current Requirements and Expected Changes - Online, January 11th

China has established a solid but rather complex regulatory system for food additives. This system can be difficult to navigate for European small and medium-sized food producers who often have questions about the scope and permitted usage of food additives in China. Furthermore, the distinction between new food additives and new food raw materials might be confusing to some.

To provide practical guidance to European SMEs on regulations pertaining to food additives, the China-Italy Chamber of Commerce (CICC), in collaboration with the EU SME Centre, is organising a webinar based on the recently published 2022 Guidelines “Food Additives in China: Regulations and Practical Cases”.

EU SME Centre experts will provide an overview of the laws and regulations governing food additives in China, discuss the latest labelling requirements and introduce the expected changes to the regulations.
