A Practice Note discussing the prohibition against importing goods into the US that are mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or in part with forced labor, including forced child labor. The Note covers enforcement of the import ban by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) through its use of Withhold Release Orders (WROs), Findings, and other means, and also discusses the rebuttable presumption of forced labor created by the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA), regarding North Korean labor, wherever used, and by the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA), regarding goods mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or in part in China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) or by an entity on the UFLPA Entity List. The Note also discusses best practices and due diligence that importers should exercise to ensure that their supply chains are free of forced labor.
