Definition of Novel Food Ingredients in China
Novel Food Ingredients refer to food raw materials without a history of traditional consumption in China. They fall into four main categories:
- Animal-, plant-, and microorganism-derived materials
- Components isolated from animals, plants, or microorganisms
- Food ingredients with altered original structures
- Other newly developed food raw materials
China’s Regulatory Framework & Approval Authority
Under the Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China, Novel Food Ingredients are subject to a mandatory pre-market approval system.
Any food produced using a novel food ingredient, or imported food containing such ingredients, must obtain national-level approval prior to commercialization. Ingredients that have not been approved are prohibited from use in food production or distribution.
Core Registration Dossier Requirements
Standard Application Materials
A complete Novel Food Ingredient registration dossier typically includes:
- Novel Food Ingredient registration application form
- Ingredient research report and safety assessment report
- Manufacturing process description and product specification/standard
- Draft labeling and product instructions
- Information on domestic and international research, use history, and safety evaluations
- Other supporting materials relevant to safety assessment
- Representative ingredient samples
Additional Requirements for Imported Ingredients
For imported Novel Food Ingredients, the following documents are also required:
- Official certification demonstrating that the ingredient is legally permitted for production and sale in the country or region of origin
- Compliance, inspection, or certification documents related to the overseas manufacturing facility
