♡⚖️ Asia Pet Regulations & Compliance
Knowledge Center →🍖 Pet Food Regulation
Diverse frameworks: China (MARA Pet Feed Measures 2018), Japan (Act on Safety of Pet Food 2008), South Korea (Animal Feed Management Act), plus India, Southeast Asia and others each with their own feed/label rules. Common thread: mandatory local-language labels, ingredient declarations and, for imports, registration plus veterinary/health certificates.
🧸 Pet Product Standards
Vary widely — from China’s GB/T 43839-2024 (first pet-product standard) to Japan’s Food Sanitation Act for chews and Korea’s KC marking for electrical items. Most markets lack a dedicated pet-toy law, relying on general product-safety acts.
📥 Import Requirements
Typically: local registration (MARA import cert in China; MAFRA in Korea; MAFF in Japan), overseas-manufacturer approval (GACC in China), veterinary/health certificates for animal-derived products, and HS 2309 tariffs varying by FTA. China and Korea impose the heaviest registration burdens.
📤 Export Requirements
China is both a major importer (US-led) and top global exporter; Japan/Korea are net importers (Thailand, China, US as suppliers). Intra-Asian trade is growing under RCEP/CPTPP frameworks.
