The State Council General Office issued an opinion containing 20 targeted measures to strengthen China’s full‑chain safety regulation of fireworks and firecrackers. Measures require firms to accelerate standard‑compliant upgrades and mechanism, establish and enforce exit/closure mechanisms to shut producers that do not meet safety conditions, clarify departmental enforcement responsibilities, and assign primary liability to internet platforms while banning individuals from posting fireworks sales online. The opinion also calls for new supervisory tools to close regulatory gaps and strengthen oversight across production, distribution and sales.
