Taiwan has established a food safety system organized under the Department of Health, with the Bureau of Food Safety and Bureau of Food and Drug Analysis responsible for safety registration, guidance, and nutrition. Local health bureaus also play a role. For imported foods, the Department of Health and Bureau of Food Safety inspect at ports of entry, with local authorities overseeing afterwards. Several laws and regulations govern food safety and quality in Taiwan developed according to the Acts. Taiwan participates in international food safety organizations and works to improve transparency, research, and risk assessment as part of its food safety system.
