SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The TIP Report: The TIP Report is the 

most comprehensive worldwide report 

on foreign governments’ efforts to 

combat trafficking in persons. It 

represents an updated, global look at the 

nature and scope of trafficking in 

persons and the broad range of 

government actions to confront and 

eliminate it. The U.S. Government uses 

the TIP Report to engage in public 

diplomacy to encourage partnership in 

creating and implementing laws and 

policies to combat trafficking and to 

target resources on prevention, 

protection and prosecution programs. 

Worldwide, the report is used by 

international organizations, foreign 

governments, and nongovernmental 

organizations alike as a tool to examine 

where resources are most needed. 

Freeing victims, preventing trafficking, 

and bringing traffickers to justice are the 

ultimate goals of the report and of the 

U.S government’s anti-human 

trafficking policy. 

The Department prepares the TIP 

Report using information from across 

the U.S. Government, U.S. Embassies, 

foreign government officials, 

nongovernmental and international 

organizations, published reports, and 

research trips to every region. The TIP 

Report focuses on concrete actions that 

governments take to fight trafficking in 

persons, including prosecutions, 

convictions, and prison sentences for 

traffickers as well as victim protection 

measures and prevention efforts. Each 

TIP Report narrative also includes a 

section on recommendations. These 

recommendations are then used to assist 

in measuring progress from one year to 

the next and determining whether 

governments comply with the minimum 

standards to eliminate trafficking in 

persons or are making significant efforts 

to do so. 

The TVPA creates a three tier ranking 

system. This placement is based more 

on the extent of government action to 

combat trafficking than on the size of 

the problem, although that is also an 

important factor. The Department first 

evaluates whether the government fully 

complies with the TVPA’s minimum 

standards for the elimination of 

trafficking. Governments that fully 

comply are placed on Tier 1. For other 

governments, the Department considers 

the extent of efforts to reach 

compliance. Governments that are 

making significant efforts to meet the 

minimum standards are placed on Tier 

2. Governments that do not fully comply 

with the minimum standards and are 

not making significant efforts to do so 

are placed on Tier 3. Finally, the 

Department considers Special Watch 

List criteria and, when applicable, 

moves Tier 2 countries to Tier 2 Watch 

List. For more information, the 2010 TIP 

Report can be found at http:// 

www.state.gov/g/tip/rls/tiprpt/2010/ 

index.htm. 

Since the inception of the TIP Report 

in 2001, the number of countries 

included and ranked has more than 

doubled to include 177 countries in the 

2010 TIP Report. The number of 

countries on Tier 1 has grown from 12 

to 30 and the number of countries on 

Tier 3 has decreased from 23 to 12. 

Around the world, the TIP Report and 

the best practices reflected therein have 

inspired legislation, national action 

plans, implementation of policies and 

funded programs, protection 

mechanisms that complement 

prosecution efforts, and a 

comprehensive understanding of the 

issue. 

Since 2003, the primary reporting on 

the United States’ anti-trafficking 

activities has been through the Attorney 

General’s Report to Congress and 

Assessment of U.S. Government 

Activities to Combat Human Trafficking 

(‘‘AG Report’’) mandated by section 105 

of the TVPA (22 U.S.C. 7103(d)(7)). The 

United States voluntarily, through a 

collaborative interagency process, 

includes in the TIP Report an analysis 

of U.S. government anti-trafficking 

efforts in light of the minimum 

standards to eliminate trafficking in 

persons set forth by the TVPA. This 

analysis in the TIP report is done in 

addition to the AG Report, resulting in 

a multi-faceted self-assessment process 

of expanded scope. 

II. Minimum Standards for the 

Elimination of Trafficking in Persons 

The TVPA sets forth the minimum 

standards for the elimination of 

trafficking in persons as follows: 

(1) The government of the country 

should prohibit severe forms of 

trafficking in persons and punish acts of 

such trafficking. 

(2) For the knowing commission of 

any act of sex trafficking involving 

force, fraud, coercion, or in which the 

victim of sex trafficking is a child 

incapable of giving meaningful consent, 

or of trafficking which includes rape or 

kidnapping or which causes a death, the 

government of the country should 

prescribe punishment commensurate 

with that for grave crimes, such as 

forcible sexual assault. 

(3) For the knowing commission of 

any act of a severe form of trafficking in 

persons, the government of the country 

should prescribe punishment that is 

sufficiently stringent to deter and that 

adequately reflects the heinous nature of 

the offense. 

(4) The government of the country 

should make serious and sustained 

efforts to eliminate severe forms of 

trafficking in persons. 

The following factors should be 

considered as indicia of serious and 

sustained efforts to eliminate severe 

forms of trafficking in persons: 

(1) Whether the government of the 

country vigorously investigates and 

prosecutes acts of severe forms of 

trafficking in persons, and convicts and 

sentences persons responsible for such 

acts, that take place wholly or partly 

within the territory of the country, 

including, as appropriate, requiring 

incarceration of individuals convicted 

of such acts. For purposes of the 

preceding sentence, suspended or 

significantly reduced sentences for 

convictions of principal actors in cases 

of severe forms of trafficking in persons 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES

1662 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 7 / Tuesday, January 11, 2011 / Notices 

shall be considered, on a case-by-case 

basis, whether to be considered as an 

indicator of serious and sustained 

efforts to eliminate severe forms of 

trafficking in persons. After reasonable 

requests from the Department of State 

for data regarding investigations, 

prosecutions, convictions, and 

sentences, a government which does not 

provide such data, consistent with the 

capacity of such government to obtain 

such data, shall be presumed not to 

have vigorously investigated, 

prosecuted, convicted or sentenced such 

acts. During the periods prior to the 

annual report submitted on June 1, 

2004, and on June 1, 2005, and the 

periods afterwards until September 30 

of each such year, the Secretary of State 

may disregard the presumption 

contained in the preceding sentence if 

the government has provided some data 

to the Department of State regarding 

such acts and the Secretary has 

determined that the government is 

making a good faith effort to collect 

such data. 

(2) Whether the government of the 

country protects victims of severe forms 

of trafficking in persons and encourages 

their assistance in the investigation and 

prosecution of such trafficking, 

including provisions for legal 

alternatives to their removal to countries 

in which they would face retribution or 

hardship, and ensures that victims are 

not inappropriately incarcerated, fined, 

or otherwise penalized solely for 

unlawful acts as a direct result of being 

trafficked, including by providing 

training to law enforcement and 

immigration officials regarding the 

identification and treatment of 

trafficking victims using approaches 

that focus on the needs of the victims. 

(3) Whether the government of the 

country has adopted measures to 

prevent severe forms of trafficking in 

persons, such as measures to inform and 

educate the public, including potential 

victims, about the causes and 

consequences of severe forms of 

trafficking in persons, measures to 

establish the identity of local 

populations, including birth 

registration, citizenship, and 

nationality, measures to ensure that its 

nationals who are deployed abroad as 

part of a peacekeeping or other similar 

mission do not engage in or facilitate 

severe forms of trafficking in persons or 

exploit victims of such trafficking, and 

measures to prevent the use of forced 

labor or child labor in violation of 

international standards. 

(4) Whether the government of the 

country cooperates with other 

governments in the investigation and 

prosecution of severe forms of 

trafficking in persons. 

(5) Whether the government of the 

country extradites persons charged with 

acts of severe forms of trafficking in 

persons on substantially the same terms 

and to substantially the same extent as 

persons charged with other serious 

crimes (or, to the extent such extradition 

would be inconsistent with the laws of 

such country or with international 

agreements to which the country is a 

party, whether the government is taking 

all appropriate measures to modify or 

replace such laws and treaties so as to 

permit such extradition). 

(6) Whether the government of the 

country monitors immigration and 

emigration patterns for evidence of 

severe forms of trafficking in persons 

and whether law enforcement agencies 

of the country respond to any such 

evidence in a manner that is consistent 

with the vigorous investigation and 

prosecution of acts of such trafficking, 

as well as with the protection of human 

rights of victims and the internationally 

recognized human right to leave any 

country, including one’s own, and to 

return to one’s own country. 

(7) Whether the government of the 

country vigorously investigates, 

prosecutes, convicts, and sentences 

public officials who participate in or 

facilitate severe forms of trafficking in 

persons, including nationals of the 

country who are deployed abroad as 

part of a peacekeeping or other similar 

mission who engage in or facilitate 

severe forms of trafficking in persons or 

exploit victims of such trafficking, and 

takes all appropriate measures against 

officials who condone such trafficking. 

After reasonable requests from the 

Department of State for data regarding 

such investigations, prosecutions, 

convictions, and sentences, a 

government which does not provide 

such data consistent with its resources 

shall be presumed not to have 

vigorously investigated, prosecuted, 

convicted, or sentenced such acts. 

During the periods prior to the annual 

report submitted on June 1, 2004, and 

on June 1, 2005, and the periods 

afterwards until September 30 of each 

such year, the Secretary of State may 

disregard the presumption contained in 

the preceding sentence if the 

government has provided some data to 

the Department of State regarding such 

acts and the Secretary has determined 

that the government is making a good 

faith effort to collect such data. 

(8) Whether the percentage of victims 

of severe forms of trafficking in the 

country that are non-citizens of such 

countries is insignificant. 

(9) Whether the government of the 

country, consistent with the capacity of 

such government, systematically 

monitors its efforts to satisfy the criteria 

described in paragraphs (1) through (8) 

and makes available publicly a periodic 

assessment of such efforts. 

(10) Whether the government of the 

country achieves appreciable progress 

in eliminating severe forms of 

trafficking when compared to the 

assessment in the previous year. 

(11) Whether the government of the 

country has made serious and sustained 

efforts to reduce the demand for (A) 

commercial sex acts; and (B) 

participation in international sex 

tourism by nationals of the country.
