This document provides a consolidated overview of the three authorities (19 U.S.C. 1307, UFLPA, CAATSA) CBP uses to prevent the importation of goods produced with forced labor into the United States in a single, accessible document, and gives users greater transparency across CBP’s enforcement landscape, including:
Enforcement process maps covering UFLPA, CAATSA, Withhold Release Order (WRO) and Finding actions
Dedicated sections on the UFLPA, CAATSA, WRO and Finding enforcement processes providing step-by-step guidance on what importers can expect and how to respond to detentions or exclusions
Appendices outlining recommended supply chain documentation for UFLPA high-priority sectors, practical UFLPA due diligence examples, and sample detention and exclusion notices related to UFLPA, WRO, and CAATSA as well as Notices of Redelivery and Certificates of Origin
Importers are encouraged to review this new guidance and conduct due diligence of their suppliers prior to detention of their goods. Read More→
