description Forensic science standards are specifications and procedures that would greatly help to ensure a scientific, reliable and accurate result of the forensic process. The development of forensic science standards in China has been carried for more than 30 years and has its own development characteristics. Many forensic science standards have been widely used in forensic analysis and interpretation for the purposes of presenting conclusions to the court, effectively improving the performance of forensic science in China. This paper reviews the history and current situation of forensic science standards in China, including the standard development organization, standard supply, standardization system, standard implementation and review. This paper also introduces the characteristics and challenges of forensic science standardization in China and discusses the future trends, which would help to enhance the understanding of China’s forensic science standardization and provide a Chinese reference for the global forensic science community.
