The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, or UFLPA, was signed into law by President Joe Biden on December 23, 2021. This significant international trade legislation was the U.S. response to the Chinese government’s systemic use of forced labor against Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) in the People’s Republic of China. The UFLPA (Public Law No. 117-78), directs the Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force to develop a strategy for supporting enforcement of the prohibition on the importation of goods into the United States manufactured wholly or in part with forced labor in the People’s Republic of China, especially from the XUAR.
Effective June 21, 2022, CBP enforces the rebuttable presumption that goods mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or in part in the XUAR, or by an entity on the UFLPA Entity List, are prohibited from U.S. importation under 19 U.S.C. § 1307. CBP’s enforcement of this act is crucial to ensuring that goods entering the U.S. are not the product of human suffering.
