On December 29, 2023, China’s Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment jointly published the list of goods prohibited from export (eighth batch) and the list of goods prohibited from import (ninth batch), in which PFOS products were included. The lists shall be effective from January 1, 2024.

China,Prohibit,Import,Export,PFOS

All these measures are formulated to regulate the circulation of PFOS products in international trade. However, PFOS products can be used for R&D research and reference products.

Products included in the list of goods prohibited from export and import are not allowed to be imported or exported from China and any violations will be subject to stringent punishments. The implementation of these measures will have a significant impact on relevant enterprises involving PFOS products, especially those involving the import and export of PFOS products.

The lists contain 4 chemicals, including:
