Health & Supplement Export FAQs

Common questions about exporting supplements to China.

Are supplements regulated as food or drugs in China?
There are three categories: Health Food (SAMR registration, "blue hat" mark), general food (GACC filing) and drugs. Classification determines your entire approval path. We advise on the right category.
How long does health food registration take?
SAMR health food registration typically takes 12-24 months with extensive safety and efficacy evidence. Cross-border e-commerce is a faster route for market entry.
Can I sell supplements as general food?
Only if the product makes no health claims and contains no approval-required ingredients. Many effective ingredients are restricted to the health food list.
What labeling is required for imported supplements?
Depending on category: GB 7718/GB 28050 for general food, or health food labeling rules with the blue hat mark. We create compliant labels.
Are all supplement ingredients approved in China?
No. China has a positive list of permitted health food ingredients and a separate list for general food. Unlisted ingredients require individual approval – we review your formulation.
Can I sell supplements through cross-border e-commerce?
Yes. Cross-border allows many supplements to be sold without local approval – the fastest option for US and UK brands, with clear rules we navigate for you.
