etc.
At present, many countries have moved the supervision port of imported food to outside the country, and supervise the raw materials and production process from the production stage to ensure the safety of imported food
.
Similarly, South Korea has taken the following measures to conduct prior safety management of imported food
.
1.
On-site inspection and video inspection of overseas production enterprises
On-site inspection refers to the process of inspecting the facilities and production process of overseas production enterprises to confirm the actual situation of hygiene management
.
When on-site inspection is not possible due to natural disasters, epidemics, etc.
, or when certain matters need to be quickly confirmed, video and other methods can be used to conduct on-site inspections
.
The specific process of on-site inspection is divided into four steps: establishment of plan → preparation in advance → on-site inspection → result measures
.
1.
1 Establish a plan
Comprehensive consideration of non-compliance, hazard information and other factors to determine the object of on-site inspection
.
After the plan is established, the content and schedule of the on-site inspection are notified to the government of the exporting country and overseas manufacturers
.
Overseas production enterprises must reply within 15 days from the date of receipt of the relevant notification (or within 20 days from the date of notification)
.
If you have any objection to the on-site inspection schedule, you can apply for adjustment within 2 months
.
If there is no legitimate reason for refusing, obstructing, or evading on-site inspection, measures to stop importation may be taken
.
1.
2 Preparation for on-site inspection
Conduct on-site inspection-related training for inspectors.
The training content includes the implementation steps and methods of on-site inspection, key confirmation items and safety precautions
.
1.
3 On-site inspection
Before the inspection begins, the inspecting party, the enterprises under inspection and government regulators will hold a pre-inspection meeting together
.
The inspector will introduce the inspection team members, inspection schedule and evaluation procedures
.
The enterprise side introduced the enterprise hygiene management situation
.
The on-site inspection is carried out in accordance with the "Inspection Methods and Standards for Overseas Production Enterprises and Overseas Processing Plants"
.
After the inspection is over, the inspector will explain the correction items at the end meeting, and the important non-conforming items should be corrected quickly, and then listen to the opinions of the relevant enterprises for the correction items
.
1.
4 Outcome measures
Submit a report within 30 days after returning home after the on-site inspection, including the overview of the on-site inspection, correction requirements, future measures and plans,
etc.
If it is judged to be unqualified, it is required to submit a general report on site

.
The inspection results will be notified in the form of official documents to overseas manufacturers, the government of the exporting country, the Imported Food Bureau of the Ministry of Food and Drugs, the imported food inspection department of the local Food and Drug Administration and South Korean importers
.
2.
Food safety management certification (HACCP certification) system for overseas production enterprises
In order to ensure the safety of imported food, the Korea Food Safety Management Certification Institute certifies overseas production enterprises according to the Korea Food Safety Management Certification Standard (HACCP)
.
That is, the safety management of imported food production raw materials, hazardous substances and pollutants by overseas manufacturers is at the same level as that of South Korea
.
At present, South Korea requires overseas manufacturers of spicy cabbage to carry out the above certification
.
The certification time points according to the export volume are as follows
.

The process of applying for certification by an overseas production enterprise is divided into steps such as certification application (attach required documents for application) → review documents → on-site confirmation and evaluation of overseas production enterprises → judgment → issuance of certification
.
From July 1, 2021, in addition to overseas producers of spicy cabbage, other overseas food producers can also voluntarily apply for the Korea Food Safety Management Certification Standard (HACCP) certification
.
3.
Excellent import enterprise system
The excellent import enterprise system is a system that enables Korean import enterprises to take the initiative to take responsibility for food safety, that is, import enterprises that conduct sanitation inspections of overseas production enterprises are awarded the title of excellent import enterprise and issue a registration certificate of excellent import enterprise.
Published on the website of the Ministry of Drug Safety
.
The excellent import enterprise certificate shall indicate the product type and specific product name produced by the overseas manufacturer
.
The import registration certificate indicates that the product is exempted from import inspection from time to time, and the product packaging is allowed to display the mark of excellent import enterprise
.
The registration process of an excellent importer is divided into the steps of the importer conducting a sanitary inspection of the overseas manufacturer → applying for registration (with documents required for the application attached) → document review → on-site inspection (Ministry of Food and Drug Safety) → review and determination → registration
.
The registration of excellent import enterprises is valid for 3 years
.
The object of the application of the excellent import enterprise system is the import of food, food additives, utensils, containers and packaging and health food enterprises
.
Import enterprises of primary products such as agriculture, forestry and aquatic products and their simple processed products are excluded
.
4.
Strengthening system for pre-sanitation management of OEM foods, etc.
OEM food can easily be mistaken for Korean domestic food
.
In order to confirm the sanitation management status of OEM food and ensure the safety of OEM food, Korea also strengthens the prior sanitation management of OEM food in order to enhance the sense of responsibility of importing and selling OEM food companies
.
The specific method is that importers or sellers of OEM food entrust overseas food hygiene evaluation agencies to conduct hygiene inspections on overseas production enterprises on a regular basis
.
The hygienic inspection cycle of non-compliant food and food for infants and young children is 1 year, and the hygienic inspection cycle of other foods is 2 years
.
The "On-site Inspection Methods and Standards for Overseas Production Enterprises and Overseas Processing Plants" stipulates the content of sanitation inspection
.
summary:
In order to ensure the safety of imported food, South Korea conducts prior safety supervision of imported food from multiple perspectives and multi-level measures
.
The on-site inspection system and video inspection system are measures for overseas production enterprises, the excellent import enterprise system is for import enterprises, and the food safety management certification (HACCP certification) system and the OEM food-related system are measures for specific products

Excellent import enterprise system
The excellent import enterprise system is a system that enables Korean import enterprises to take the initiative to take responsibility for food safety, that is, import enterprises that conduct sanitation inspections of overseas production enterprises are awarded the title of excellent import enterprise and issue a registration certificate of excellent import enterprise.
Published on the website of the Ministry of Drug Safety
.
The excellent import enterprise certificate shall indicate the product type and specific product name produced by the overseas manufacturer
.
The import registration certificate indicates that the product is exempted from import inspection from time to time, and the product packaging is allowed to display the mark of excellent import enterprise
.
The registration process of an excellent importer is divided into the steps of the importer conducting a sanitary inspection of the overseas manufacturer → applying for registration (with documents required for the application attached) → document review → on-site inspection (Ministry of Food and Drug Safety) → review and determination → registration
.
The registration of excellent import enterprises is valid for 3 years
.
The object of the application of the excellent import enterprise system is the import of food, food additives, utensils, containers and packaging and health food enterprises
.
Import enterprises of primary products such as agriculture, forestry and aquatic products and their simple processed products are excluded
.
4.
Strengthening system for pre-sanitation management of OEM foods, etc.
OEM food can easily be mistaken for Korean domestic food
.
In order to confirm the sanitation management status of OEM food and ensure the safety of OEM food, Korea also strengthens the prior sanitation management of OEM food in order to enhance the sense of responsibility of importing and selling OEM food companies
.
The specific method is that importers or sellers of OEM food entrust overseas food hygiene evaluation agencies to conduct hygiene inspections on overseas production enterprises on a regular basis
.
The hygienic inspection cycle of non-compliant food and food for infants and young children is 1 year, and the hygienic inspection cycle of other foods is 2 years
.
The "On-site Inspection Methods and Standards for Overseas Production Enterprises and Overseas Processing Plants" stipulates the content of sanitation inspection
.
summary:
In order to ensure the safety of imported food, South Korea conducts prior safety supervision of imported food from multiple perspectives and multi-level measures
.
The on-site inspection system and video inspection system are measures for overseas production enterprises, the excellent import enterprise system is for import enterprises, and the food safety management certification (HACCP certification) system and the OEM food-related system are measures for specific products
