Abstract：A livestock and poultry products quality and safety traceability system can enable the whole-process tracing or
tracking of the production, slaughter, processing, refrigerated storage and circulation of livestock and poultry carcasses by
recording information at various stages of these processes, which is of great significance for enhancing consumer trust and
satisfaction, effectively controlling the quality and safety of livestock and poultry products, strengthening the supervision of
the quality and safety of livestock and poultry products and improving the market competitiveness of livestock and poultry
products at home and abroad. There is still a certain gap in the development of livestock and poultry products quality and
safety traceability system between China and developed countries. Therefore, to understand the development of livestock
and poultry products quality and safety traceability system in developed countries and learn from and draw on their
experience, we herein briefly review the livestock and poultry products quality and safety traceability systems in developed
countries such as EU countries, the USA, Canada, Australia and Japan with respect to the related policies, laws and
regulations, standards and technologies as well as their applications. We also review the development of China’s livestock
and poultry products quality and safety traceability system and discuss the existing problems. Finally, we put forward some
countermeasures and suggestions for enhancing the quality and safety of livestock and poultry products in China.
