The United States banned the import of goods from China’s Xinjiang region on June 21, with the enactment of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act signed into law by President Joe Biden last year.
Under the rules, all goods produced in whole or in part in Xinjiang won’t be allowed to be imported into the United States. To be granted an exception, importers would need to provide “clear and convincing evidence” that no forced labor was used in producing the goods, according to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
