1. Reason for Revision and Main Contents

- This revision aims to improve and supplement certain deficiencies that have emerged in the operation of the current system.
- Strengthening safety control for high-risk imported food: It improves the system so that the number of precision inspections—which was previously applied uniformly when imported food with a history of non-compliance is re-imported—can now be applied differentially up to 20 times based on the level of risk.
- Adjusting hygiene training cycles: It rationally adjusts the frequency of mandatory hygiene training that imported food business operators must provide to their employees to better align with practical realities
