A recent review of the China State Administration for Market Regulation's website shows that five imported health foods were approved for registration between May and July—the first such registrations since 2017. Four were registered by WRIGHT LIFE PHARMACEUTICAL LIMITED, and one by Indonesia's PT. HELMIGS PRIMA SEJAHTERA.

ZMUni Compliance Centre's Comments:
Imported health food registrations had long been stalled due to the challenges of cross-border on-site inspections and strict Chinese regulations. After an eight-year gap, the recent approvals signal a positive opportunity for overseas companies: the registration pathway is now genuinely viable.
As cross-border e-commerce regulations keep tightening, we advise overseas enterprises intending to enter the Chinese market through general trade to initiate strategic planning ahead of schedule and proactively press forward with their health food registration and filing applications.
For assistance with imported health food registration or notifications—including product positioning analysis, compliance screening, application strategy development, preparation and optimization of submission materials, and process follow-up—please contact us at info@zmuni.com.
