Abstract: The improvement of forensic appraisal legislation is fundamental for the sound and unified management system of forensic appraisal in China, but current regulations cannot fulfil this task. On September 7, 2023, the Legislative Plan of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People’s Congress was released, and the Forensic Appraisal Law was listed as a second category item. The way the main content and framework structure of the Forensic Appraisal Law should be arranged needs comparative research, apart from analysis based on China’s specific circumstances. The achievements of forensic appraisal legislation and reform in the United Kingdom in recent years are of considerable reference value. China currently lacks a genuine legal entity capable of uniformly managing the forensic appraisal industry, and the implementation procedures and quality requirements of forensic appraisal are relatively separated. In future  legislation, efforts should be made to reach common understanding, establish a statutory forensic appraisal regulator, optimize norms of forensic procedures, explore the integration of  quality standards into implementation procedures, and develop forensic appraisal standards based on disciplines rather than administrative departments.
