摘要
美國食品藥物管理局(下稱美食藥局)為提升進口食品安全，針對進口國食品工廠進行實地查核，本文將探討美國如何執行我國食品工廠之查核及其查核重點。98至105年美食藥局境外查核我國食品加工廠已累積共210家次，以低酸性罐頭食品類別最多(34%)，其次為水產品(21%)，該局之查核重點係確認業者產品製程是否符合美國聯邦法典第21篇規定，針對低酸性罐頭食品，其查核重點為確認足以影響產品殺菌方式及商業滅菌效果之項目。由美國境外查核重點不難發現其查核內容與我國食品安全衛生管理法及其相關法令規定具相同精神，包括原物料追溯、人員管理、場所及設施管控、製程危害分析、成品包裝標示與成品追蹤，並著重業者自主管理，確保衛生安全之產品交付予消費者手上。
