QS mark

The QS mark is a stylisation of the letters Q and S, which stand for quality and safety.

The QS mark (formally the Industrial Product Manufacturing License) is a Chinese quality and safety mark for food, beverages and other products. Introduced in 2003,[1] it is managed by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ). The license is required for many product categories if they are both manufactured and sold in China.[2][3][4]
