Introduction
Analysis of the core content of the standard
GB/T44975-2024, as a normative document for the notification of technical trade measures in my country, systematically builds a notification implementation framework that complies with WTO rules. For the first time, the standard integrates the differentiated requirements of TBT notification and SPS notification to form a unified 13-step notification process.
| Notification Type | Applicable Scenarios | Time Limit Requirements | Appendix Table |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular Notification | Measures that can be modified at the draft stage | ≥60 days comment period | Appendix A/B |
| Emergency Notification | Health, Safety and Environmental Crisis | Effective Immediately | Appendix C |
| Equivalent Recognition Notification | International Mutual Recognition of SPS Measures | No Mandatory Comment Period | Appendix F |
Key Technical Points
1. Classification Management of Notifications
Chapter 8 of the standard clearly distinguishes:
- TBT notifications: Applicable to technical regulations and conformity assessment procedures (excluding SPS measures)
- SPS notifications: Targeting 5 specific objectives such as food safety, animal and plant health protection
- Dual-track notifications: When the nature of the measures is difficult to define, two types of notifications must be submitted at the same time
2. Form Filling Specifications
Appendix AG specifies in detail the Chinese and English bilingual filling requirements for 7 types of notification forms, including:
- Mandatory marking of product HS/ICS codes
- Declaration of Conformity to International Standards (Codex/OIE/IPPC)
- Emergency measures must explain the nature of the problem and reasons for the action
Implementation recommendations
Enterprise application cases
A food additive exporting company encountered changes in EU technical regulations and inquired about the notification process specified in GB/T44975-2024 through the National Consultation Point:
- Confirm that the regulations fall within the scope of TBT notification (non-SPS measures)
- Submit English comments through the form in Appendix A
- Provide scientific basis in accordance with Article 10.2.3 of the standard
- Obtain regulatory exemptions within the 60-day comment period
Agency operating guidelines
Notification review agencies should focus on:
- Consistency of terminology between the Chinese and English versions (Article 12.4 of the standard)
- Accuracy of international standard citations (Article 10.2.3 of the standard)
- Proof of reasonableness of emergency notifications (Article 9.3 of the standard)

| Improvement dimensions | Old version practices | New version regulations |
|---|---|---|
| Notification type | 5 types of basic notifications | New equivalent recognition notification (Appendix F) |
