    Analysis on Application Approval of New Food Additives in the First Half of 2021

    from CIRS by

    As of the end of June 2021, the National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China (NHC) issued three announcements (No.9, 2020; No.2, 2021; No.5, 2021) by the form of “Three New Food” with a total of 37 products approved including new food raw materials (novel food), new food additives, and food-related products (new food contact substances). Among them, 17 new food additives (including expanded use) were approved.

    20th Feb., 2021, officially approved by Announcement No.2 of 2021.

    Based on the analysis on the application approval of new food additives in the first half of 2021, it can be seen that there are a large number of new enzymatic products (35.3% of 17 approved products and 54.5% of 22 products issued the public comments). At the same time, nitrous oxide, the only new type of food processing aids, was approved in this year (a total of 17 have been approved since 2015, and the rest 16 products are for expanded scope).

    There are three main stages of applying for a new food additive:

    1. NHC accepts the application.
    2. CFSA runs a technical review and issue public comments.
    3. If everything goes well, NHC will approve the application.

    Generally, it will take approximately 1 year to apply for a new food additive. But when it comes to the application for expanding usage scope, the timeline may be shortened. CIRS warmly suggested that related enterprises should get well-prepared before the application to make sure that the products could pass the technical review successfully and get approved.
