Due to the volume of individuals 

traveling through Mexico to present at a 

POE at a designated date and time, CBP 

has deployed a validation mechanism to 

assist the Mexican government officials 

when they encounter an individual or 

group who claim to have a CBPOneTM

appointment. The tool requires the 

Mexican government official to enter an 

individual’s CBPOneTM confirmation 

number and date of birth. Once 

submitted, the tool returns confirmation 

of any valid CBPOneTM appointment 

with the appointment date, time, and 

location, as well as the total number of 

people in the group.

Overview of This Information 

Collection 

Title: Forced Labor Allegation Portal/ 

Forced Labor Portal. 

OMB Number: 1651–0NEW. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Current Actions: New collection of 

information. 

Type of Review: New collection of 

information. 

Affected Public: Businesses, 

Individuals. 

Abstract: U.S. Customs and Borders 

Protection (CBP) has created a new 

Forced Labor Allegation Portal and 

Forced Labor Portal. Currently, 

information regarding potential forced 

labor and trade violations are 

electronically submitted via the eAllegations website at: https://

www.cbp.gov/trade/e-allegations/. 

Submissions from petitioners for 

revocation and modification requests 

are submitted by email to ForcedLabor@

cbp.dhs.gov (and through the BOX 

program and the Case Management 

System—CMS). Exception review 

information is sent to UFLPAInquiry@

cbp.dhs.gov mailbox via email with 

multiple zip files. 

Applicability review information is 

sent to various ports of entry or any of

the ten Centers of Excellence and 

Expertise via email with multiple zip 

files or shared secured folders. 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) enforces section 307 of the Tariff 

Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1307), which 

states that ‘‘all goods, wares, articles, 

and merchandise mined, produced, or 

manufactured wholly or in part in any 

foreign country by convict labor or/and 

forced labor or/and indentured labor 

under penal sanctions shall not be 

entitled to entry at any of the ports of 

the United States, and the importation 

thereof is hereby prohibited . . .’’ 

In addition, the Trade Facilitation and 

Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 (TFTEA) 

(Pub. L. 114–125), signed into law on 

February 24, 2016, removed the 

‘‘consumptive demand clause’’ for the 

enforcement of 19 U.S.C. 1307, and 

mandated CBP to create a division to 

oversee forced labor enforcement and 

create a process for the investigation of 

allegations. 

CBP also enforces the Countering 

America’s Adversaries Through 

Sanctions Act (CAATSA) (Pub. L. 115– 

44 (August 2, 2017), (22 U.S.C. 9241a)) 

where goods produced by North Korean 

nationals or citizens are presumed to be 

produced under forced labor and are 

prohibited from entering the U.S. 

commerce under 19 U.S.C. 1307. 

Recently, the Uyghur Forced Labor 

Prevention Act (UFLPA) (Pub. L. 117–78 

(December 23, 2021)) established that 

any goods produced wholly or in part in 

the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous 

Region (XUAR) of China, or by entities 

on the UFLPA Entity List are presumed 

to be made with forced labor and thus 

prohibited from importation into the 

U.S. under 19 U.S.C. 1307. This law 

allows for the collection of supply chain 

documentation to substantiate that 

forced labor was not used in the 

production of imported goods under an 

exception review or UFLPA does not 

apply to the detained shipment under 

an applicability review. 

Sections 12.42 through 12.45 of title 

19 of the Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) contain methods for CBP to 

collect information on forced labor, 

conduct investigations, and initiate 

withhold release orders (WRO) or 

findings to enforce 19 U.S.C. 1307 as 

well as allow for the collection of 

information from importers on detained 

shipments for admissibility review 

under a WRO. 

Individuals, companies (domestic and 

international), civil society 

organizations, and nongovernmental 

organizations may submit allegations of 

forced labor, request for admissibility, 

applicability, and exception reviews 

with CBP under these laws and 

regulations. 

The new Forced Labor Allegation 

Portal and the Forced Labor Portal will 

consolidate the various abovementioned methods of submission into 

one centralized location, increasing 

efficiency and reducing the burden of 

collection to both CBP and the public.
