AVA lifts suspension on import of China milk products
Channel NewsAsia - Friday, December 19
SINGAPORE : Singapore’s Agri—Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) has lifted the suspension on the import of milk and milk products from China.
AVA said that following its inspection of dairy farms, milk collection centres and food processing establishments in China, it is satisfied with the control measures in place to ensure that milk and milk products imported from China are not contaminated with melamine.
Products produced by approved establishments on or after December 18 will be allowed into Singapore.
AVA has also imposed additional import conditions for such Chinese products. These include mandatory batch testing of raw materials by manufacturers for melamine contamination and health certification by the Chinese authorities that consignments exported to Singapore have been tested and are melamine—free.
Suspension of China milk and milk products came into effect on September 19 and AVA has been working closely with the Chinese authorities to facilitate the resumption of imports while ensuring food safety of products.
AVA said it will continue to monitor the products imported into Singapore to ensure that they are safe for consumption.
