China increases ban on Japanese food imports

China has expanded a ban on imported food and farm produce from Japan amid growing fears of radiation contamination.

The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) said that starting from Friday, China has banned imports of foodstuffs and edible farm produce along with fodders from 12 areas in Japan, compared with only five Japanese counties blacklisted on March 24.

AQSIQ demanded importers of food, edible farm produce and fodders from other Japanese areas should also provide documents issued by Japanese government agencies while applying for quarantine in China.
