Condensed milk products are common dairy products in the Chinese market and international trade. With the development of dairy industry and the emergence of new products， the contents of commodity standards are constantly being revised and updated. By comparing the content and management logic of domestic and international standards， it is helpful to learn from the standards management experience of other countries and constantly improve our standards. A review of the development and evolution of China’s national standards for concentrated milk products was performed. The regulations and standards of concentrated milk products from relevant international organizations， countries， and regions were compared and analyzed. Commodity standards from the Codex Alimentarius Commission and relevant mandatory standards and regulations from the European Union， the United States， Canada， Japan， the Republic of Korea， Australia， and New Zealand were collecting and summarized. The comparisons and analyses focused on the similarities and differences in terminology， definitions， categorization-relevant indices， and labeling requirements of various concentrated milk products under different commodity standards. The definition of evaporated milk， the product properties and composition requirements of concentrated milk， and the corresponding relations between the terms of various concentrated milk products were researched and discussed. Management suggestions and key points regarding the updating of condensed milk standards are provided to support standard management activities in China.
