Feed control act Article 11

Importers shall apply for licenses to import feed/feed additives announced as requiring such by the central competent authority. Only after the feed/feed additive passes inspection, and only after an Import license is issued, may the importing occur. However, if an entity is permitted to manufacture feed supplements or formulated feed and obtains a Manufacturing license for such, and then imports feed only for its own factory in manufacturing said food supplements or formulated feed, this restriction shall not apply.Entities granted Import licenses described in the previous paragraph may authorize other feed vendors to handle importing tasks on their behalf.The central competent authority shall prescribe, from the previous two paragraphs, the application criteria, procedures, documents to be attached, testing protocols, permit criteria, Import license issuance/renewal/replacement, authorized importing, and other matters for compliance.The central competent authority may delegate the tasks of accepting applications, conducting lab tests, and issuance of Import licenses described in paragraph 1 to its own subordinate agencies/organizations, to competent authorities at the directly-controlled municipal government or county/city-levels, or to other organizations.
