According to “Administrative Measures on the Inspection and Quarantine Supervision of imported and Exported Dairy Products”, the inspection of imported dairy products is divided into two situations: the first import inspection and the non-first import inspection. There are different test items in different situations. What are the specific testing items?

1 First import

It is necessary to provide the test report of the items listed in the corresponding national food safety standards when importing for the first time.

Take milk powder as an example, the items that need to be tested for the first import include sensory requirements, physical and chemical indicators, pollutants, mycotoxins, microorganisms, food additives, and nutritional supplements listed in the national food safety standard.

The test items of the modified milk powder should include the milk solid content.

2 Non-first import

The test items of non-first import should be determined and announced by the General Administration of Customs based on dairy risk monitoring and other relevant conditions.

At present, enterprises can refer to the inspection items of non-first import listed in the announcement No. 3 of 2015 issued by the original General Administration of Quality Supervision, that is announcement of AQSIQ on adjusting implementation measures of "Administrative measures on inspection and quarantine of imports and exports dairy products".


Each test report shall correspond to the batch or production date of the product. The following testing agencies can be selected to issue test report for imported dairy products:
- foreign official laboratory; or
- third-party testing agency; or
- enterprise laboratory; or
- domestic inspection institutions that have obtained the qualification certification of food inspection institutions
