UFLPA
Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act
The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) serves to protect vulnerable workers by prohibiting any goods, wares, articles or merchandise produced within China’s Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region from entering into America, unless they are able to prove that these items were not subjected to forced labor practices.
The UFLPA establishes a rebuttable presumption that any goods mined, produced, or manufactured in the XUAR are made with forced labor and are thus prohibited from entering the United States under Section 307 of the Tariff Act of 1930. This presumption also applies to goods produced by certain entities identified by the U.S. government.
