Customs divides special items into different risk levels based on risk factors such as pathogenicity, pathogenicity, usage, use and controllability, and balances safety and efficiency through differentiated risk supervision. Recently, the ' Biosafety Risk Classification Supervision Table for Special Incoming and Exit Special Items ' was updated and released and will be implemented according to the new Classification Table from now on. We sort out relevant content to help you grasp relevant information faster and promote business development.
01 The biosafety risk classification of special items is adjusted from four levels: A, B, C, and D to A (A1, A2) 、B (B1, B2) 、C (C1, C2)。
On April 22, 2025, the General Administration of Customs issued the 'Announcement of the General Administration of Customs on Clarifying that some goods and items will no longer be supervised as special items entering and leaving the country' (Announcement [2025] No. 65), which clarified that the customs will no longer be supervised as special items entering and leaving the country that are included in the management of drugs, veterinary drugs, and medical devices, as well as import and export microbial fungi agents for environmental protection. The original D-level special items included in the management of drugs, veterinary drugs and medical devices. According to the latest policies, the supervision will no longer be carried out as special items entering and leaving the country.
02 In terms of approval requirements, the approval validity period and verification management are consistent with the previous one ( in terms of quarantine approval, the validity period of Level A is 3 months, the validity period of Level B is 6 months, and the C is 12 months, and the A is 12 months ;. Level A needs to be written off at one time, and Level B and C can be written off in batches) . However, in the quarantine approval of the new version of the regulatory table, the transportation and packaging requirements for special items of different risk levels are emphasized.。
03 The new version of the 'Biosafety Risk Classification Supervision Form for Special Incoming and Exiting Special Items' does not mention the follow-up supervision method in the regulatory method , while the old version mentions follow-up supervision in the regulatory method:
| Risk level | Follow-up supervision |
| Class A | 是 |
| Level B | 是 |
| C-level | 否 |
| Class D | 否 |
04 The specific content of the hierarchical catalog has also been adjusted accordingly, see the following comparison:
Class A
Level B
C-level
It is worth noting that the internationally renowned bacterial strain collection institutions have been adjusted from the original two (ATCC, CMCC) to 6.
