The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) published the revision of the "Special Act on Imported Food Safety Control". In cases where the registration of a foreign food establishment has been revoked due to the fact that registration was made by fraud or other improper means, the said foreign establishment cannot apply for registration for two years from the date of revocation.
Also, when a foreign food establishment withdraws its registration before the MFDS notifying an on-site inspection schedule to the facility, it can apply for registration after receiving an on-site inspection.
