Since 2006, the EU has been relaying information to China of unsafe products of Chinese origin which were reported on the European market under an alert system. China is endeavoring to tackle its goods safety problem in a comprehensive way.
In order to prevent goods from illegal exporters from entering the overseas markets, all exports would bear the sign "CIQ" meaning "China Inspection and Quarantine" on the exterior packaging from September 1 after they are inspected by the AQSIQ.
Importers would be able to trace the original producer of the food according to a code printed on the sign, and ascertain from the AQSIQ''s Website whether the producer was a qualified exporter.
Praising Chinese authorities for taking serious attitude towards the goods safety, Kuneva said they will continue to provide the Chinese with specific information to track down and investigate alerts of dangerous products. Kuneva will also visit a toy factory and the national laboratory for toy testing in Yangzhou of east China''s Jiangsu province.
