China Launches Registration Website for Foreign Exporting Facilities

China this week launched its website for self-registration of foreign food production facilities that export to China, the U.S. Department of Agriculture Foreign Agricultural Service said in a Nov. 3 report. The website allows customs registrations for certain foreign food, beverage and agricultural exporting facilities (see 2110130022). China plans to publish a “user guide” to the website, USDA said, which is “almost entirely in Chinese.” The agency plans to provide U.S. reports with partial translations of the website and information on the “various data fields that need to be completed.”
