Factories and storehouses of food for export must apply for registration to the commodity inspection authorities in their respective provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government. The factories and storehouses of food for export are permitted to produce, process or store food for export only after they have obtained a registration certificate and an approved registration code number. These exporters of food for export shall establish sanitary control system and shall be responsible for the sanitary quality of food for export (art. 10). No food is permitted to be exported without undergoing inspection or if that food is judged below standard.
