SUMMARY:Free Webinar: Analysis of Policy Trends in Cross-Border E-Commerce for Imported Health Foods & Blue Hat Registration and Filing
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, China’s policies regarding cross-border e-commerce (CBEC) for imported health foods have generally shifted from prioritizing “easy market access” to a model of “convenience combined with strict regulatory oversight”. The basic framework continues to treat CBEC retail imports as “items imported for personal use”\, exempting them from first-import registration or filing requirements. Products may be sold in accordance with the standards of their country of origin\, but platforms and enterprises must fully inform consumers of any potential discrepancies with Chinese standards. \nThe 2025 Opinions on Further Strengthening Whole-Chain Supervision of Food Safety further proposed establishing a negative list for CBEC retail food imports\, strengthening information sharing between Customs and market supervisors\, clarifying recall responsibilities\, and enhancing supervision of recalls for problematic product. Overall\, the cross-border import of health foods has not been subject to a “one-size-fits-all” tightening of regulations; however\, requirements for ingredient compliance\, risk warnings\, platform responsibilities\, and post-sale recalls have significantly increased\, moving the industry toward closer alignment with general trade. However\, as for now\, there are no clear indications that CBEC imports of health foods will be fully subjected to the same requirements as general trade\, such as mandatory GACC registration of overseas manufacturers or Blue Hat registration/filing. \nTo help companies respond to these policy changes\, CIRS Group\, together with HPA-Global\, is to host a free webinar on the Policy Trends in Cross-Border E-Commerce for Imported Health Foods & Blue Hat Registration and Filing on Wednesday\, August 12\, 2026\, at 12:00-13:00 EST. \nTime and Schedule\n\n\n\n\nTopic\nDate\nTime (EST)\nLanguage\nRegistration\n\n\nAnalysis of Policy Trends in Cross-Border E-Commerce for Health Foods & Blue Hat Registration and Filing\nAugust 12\, 2026\n12:00-13:00 pm\nEnglish\nRegister here\n\n\n\n\nContents\n\nAnalysis of policy trends in cross-border e-commerce for health foods\nGACC registration for overseas health food manufacturers\nProcess and duration for imported health food registration/filing\nCommon issues and solutions for imported health food registration/filing\nCIRS success case sharing on imported health foods\n\nRecommended Attendees\nProfessionals interested in health food cross-border e-commerce policies\, including but not limited to: \n\nOverseas health food manufacturers\nOverseas health food traders or exporters\nProfessionals in the health food cross-border e-commerce industry\nDomestic health food importers and agents\nImporters/exporters of health food ingredients\nOthers concerned with health food cross-border e-commerce policies\n\nRegistration Fee\nFree \n❤ As a special bonus\, all attendees will receive a comprehensive guidance on health food registration and filing in China free of charge after the webinar. \n \n                ▼▼▼ \nChina’s health food market continues to expand\, and a strong consumer preference for imported products is creating lucrative opportunities for overseas companies.
