Obviously, the technical review has passed the formula registration certificate only after the signature of the leader, but it has been returned to the state of “technical review”.
Since the registration of the first batch of infant formula in China on August 3 last year, 43 batches have been published. However, in the past six months, only two batches have been fortunately announced.
What happened to the registration process for infant formula? According to incomplete statistics, at least 100 formula registration applications for more than 40 milk powder brands have been accepted, but there has been no progress.
Some companies have privately said nonsense: We would like to know if the formulation registration work is still in progress? If there are any thresholds in progress, if there is, let us know, we can prepare according to the regulations; if we stop the work, we can tell us clearly so that we can give up. Otherwise, no matter whether it is a company, a dealer or a consumer, you can't afford it!

1. 41 batches were announced in the first half of the year, and only two batches were announced in the second half of the year.
On August 3, 2017, the State Food and Drug Administration announced the registration of the first batch of formulas for infant formula, which opened an important step in the registration of infant formula for sale in the Chinese market.
Today, nearly a year later, the nonsense has been found on the official website of the former State Food and Drug Administration. As of now, the official website of the General Administration has issued a total of 43 lists of infant milk powder registered through the formula, indicating that the infant formula has been registered. The number reached 1156.

However, it is worth noting that the list of the 43 batches announced above, the first 41 batches of the list were announced before the Spring Festival in 2018. A few days ago, a batch of good news was published, which became a commonplace.
It has been half a year since the Spring Festival in 2018, but only two batches have been announced, February 23 and June 5.
2. Is the application for registration of the formula increased?
On April 10 this year, the newly established State Administration of Markets Supervision was officially listed. On the same day, the General Administration of Market Supervision also issued an announcement stating that the food supervision work during the period of institutional reform is still handled in accordance with the original regulations, and the approval of special foods for infant formula milk powder is reviewed and approved. Continue to advance.
However, before the Spring Festival to April 10, there has been no new recipe registration list for one and a half months. At that time, Liu Xuecong, secretary general of the China Nutrition and Health Food Association, accepted the nonsense and said:
This is mainly due to the improvement of information system debugging, the adjustment of state institutions, and the improvement of registration and approval standards.
Liu Xuecong said at the time: "As the implementation of the formulation registration progresses, the evaluation criteria are constantly improving. For example, under the existing registration management system, since February, the relevant standards will be improved, such as "three forces" (research and development capabilities, Proof of production capacity, inspection capability, marketing certificate, etc. However, with the implementation of the announcement of the above-mentioned State Administration of Markets, it is believed that the registration of infants will be approved soon.
3, more than 100 formula anxiously waiting
In response to the explanation given by Secretary General Liu Xuecong, the nonsense reasonedly asked some enterprises at that time. The statement at the time did have something to do.
However, now four months are about to pass, the newly established regulatory authorities only announced a new batch of registered recipes in June this year, the number is only 18.
So far, according to nonsense statistics, there are at least some of the more than 40 brands applying for more than 100 formulas.
Nonsense makes sense that these brands include:
Baby and me, kinray to Rui, care, Meridian, Dutch dairy cow, Minayou, Kaihuo, Haipu Nuokai, Ou, Naile, Osda, Oubei Jiazhi Xubei, Huibei Zi. Xue En, Ao Heng, Heilberg, Dutch Dairy, Jun Bao Kang, Ruan Li Li, Xu Bei Ai Si Bei, Nuo Yu You, Ya Rui, Mila Mountain, Tantu, Bai Mu Yuan Lan Nian Jing Dian , Baimuyuan, Beimeizi, Ford, Smel, Gatz, Bellemann, Deluzi, Finbel, Aiguanduo, Dorothy, Berlando, Zhenyun, Toshland Hui Rui, Mei En Zhi Xing Yun, every parent, Ai Bida, De Le Meng, You Er Kangxi many children... (NO WATTLE HEALTH)
Among the above brands, we can find that most of the formulations are applied for by overseas factories. Among them, there are even applications for registration of recipes submitted by foreign companies in September and October last year. In October and November, they were respectively notified by the State Food and Drug Administration. However, there has been no news of the registration of the formula.

In addition, in November and December, two Heilongjiang enterprise formula registrations were accepted, and the recipe registration has not been completed so far.

Then, what is the registration process in the “Interpretation of the “Regulations on the Registration of Infant Formula Milk Powder Formulations” issued by the State Food and Drug Administration in June last year?

4. Do companies dare to speak out?
“I can understand the threshold of formula registration standards. After all, formula registration is the first in China and everything is in the process of exploration.” The head of a milk powder brand told the nonsense that the problem is that we re-required according to relevant standards. Submitted the materials, and also passed the technical approval, on-site inspection, sampling inspection, and we found the final status of the administrative examination and approval through the official website to query the registration status of the registration, and it is said that the leadership signed, this pair We are really excited. However, it is puzzling that we later found out in the official website that the formula acceptance "handling status" actually changed back to "technical review."
"There is no reason for us. We can't get the real reason from the official channel." The person in charge told the nonsense to be reasonable.
And the person in charge of the brand told the nonsense to be reasonable. According to him, the relevant government departments of the countries where foreign brands are located are also communicating with the State Food and Drug Administration.
"If it is because we have not met the national standards, then we can tell us where the corrections are needed, but we don't say anything at the moment. This is what makes us most afraid." The person in charge of the company said: Enterprises invest huge amounts of money or transform or build The factory hopes that the General Administration will re-publish the application registration standard. The enterprise will declare according to the standard and pass the standard. If it does not meet the standard, it will not be approved. This is normal. Either we can tell us that we will not approve it in the future. But now it’s just hanging out here. The old packaging stocks in the market before 2018 are almost sold, dealers can’t wait, and some consumers are also facing the problem of whether to turn milk.
“Wang Hong, the director of the Food Registration Management Department of the former State Food and Drug Administration, who is responsible for the registration of the formula, retired before and after the Spring Festival this year. This may also be the reason why there is little new trend in the registration of the formula now.” There is also a saying in the industry that, before, Wang The opinion of the chief of the red company is that, if the relevant national standards are met, the enterprise can apply for the registration of the formula; if it fails, it will not pass.
It is understood that foreign brands are more complicated than domestic enterprises due to the preparation of materials, so the current foreign brand formula registration rate is low, less than 37%.
There is also a voice in the industry, and relevant departments may issue draft amendments regarding the registration of milk powder formulas. But there is no news at the moment.
“Dare to anger and dare not speak”, a person in charge of the company said that who dares to offend the regulatory authorities! !
5, the association called on the company to be a little patient
Regarding the anxiety of the company, Liu Xuecong, secretary-general of the China Nutrition and Health Food Association, said in a nonsense manner that it was really uncomfortable for the company to delay approval, but the registration review for infant formula was not suspended.
"It is understood that the review and approval of infant milk powder is not suspended as speculated by outsiders, but the speed of approval has actually dropped a lot compared to last year." Liu Xuecong said that on the one hand, the total number of approved product formulas has been nearly 60%. At the same time, due to the applicability of the formula registration system, some registration systems have also been discovered, which need to be further improved; on-site verification of overseas enterprises is also a cause of confusion.
"I think the regulatory authorities will seriously study the problems reflected by the industry enterprises and continue to promote the registration and management of infant milk powder." Liu Xuecong said that the company has been unsuccessful and even in trouble, but still hopes to be in some Be patient and look forward to good results.
Nonsense and reasonable thinking, or else, a little patience and so on? After all, the current investigation of the fake vaccine is the most important thing! !
