href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/food-drink\/food\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chilled and frozen foods<\/a> for COVID-19, more than two years after Beijing started the controversial practice, adding substantial costs to the trade.<\/p>\n<p>The State Administration for Market Regulation will stop testing chilled and frozen foods for COVID-19 from Jan. 8, according to a notice seen by Reuters and confirmed by the agency.<\/p>\n<p>It will also no longer require all imported chilled and frozen foods to enter centralized warehouses for disinfection and testing before they reach the domestic market.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/italy-test-airline-passengers-china-half-travelers-milan-covid-19\" target=\"_blank\"

announcement from the customs authority on Wednesday that it will stop testing cold-chain food arriving at the country&#8217;s ports.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This policy means we will have much lower cost and risk on both product storage and transportation,&#8221; said a Beijing-based meat importer that buys beef and pork from the United States and other countries.<\/p>\n<p>Having imposed the world&#8217;s strictest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/infectious-disease\/coronavirus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COVID regime<\/a> of lockdowns and relentless testing for three years, China reversed course this month towards living with the virus, though new infections have soared.<\/p>\n<p>China started testing chilled and frozen food imports for COVID in 2020 after an outbreak of the disease in a wholesale market led authorities to believe the virus had spread from imported produce.<\/p>\n<p><a

href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/world\/world-regions\/china\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">food to China<\/a>, the world&#8217;s top buyer of meat and many other perishable goods.<\/p>\n<p>It also raised costs for both importers and exporters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The cancellation of testing and disinfection requirements will definitely benefit the meat trade in terms of reducing extra cost and speeding up movement of goods,&#8221; said Huang Juhui, founder of Beijing Means Consulting Co.<\/p>\n<p>COVID testing and disinfection, moving the goods from the port to central storage, demurrage, electricity, and centralized storage costs can add up to as much as 30,000 yuan ($4,321) per container, and take up to 30 days, said Huang.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The reported ending of COVID testing and disinfection of imported meat at ports and at in-market distribution points will be an encouraging step toward the resumption of normalized trade,&#8221; said Joel Haggard, Senior Vice President of the Asia Pacific Region at the U.S. Meat Export Federation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a
