China: National Standard for Drinking Water Quality Released

On March 15, 2022, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) State Administration for Market Regulation and National Standardization Committee released National Food Safety Standard for Drinking Water Quality (GB5749-2022), which entered into force on April 1, 2023. This report contains an unofficial translation of the standard. This report is being published and shared by FAS China now owing to its relevance for several commodity sectors attempting to register as part of the PRC's Decree 248 facility registration requirements.
