中國消費者質量監督機構日前表示，2016年，共有3.5萬噸進口食品產品沒有通過質量檢驗，同比增長325%。

Those products, coming from 82 countries and regions, had a total value of 56.54 million dollars, up 135.5% year-on-year, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a white paper.

國家質量監督檢驗檢疫總局在白皮書中指出，這些產品來自82個國家和地區，總價值達5654萬美元，同比增長135.5%。

They failed examinations due to non-compliance with Chinese laws, regulations and standards, and thus were not permitted to enter China, the paper said.

白皮書稱，這些產品由於不符合我國法律法規和標準而未通過檢驗，因此未獲批入境。

The administration described the safety situation of imported food as "generally stable."
