Enforcement and Funding of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act

The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act will come into force in the US on June, 21, 2022. On this episode, John Foote, a partner and the head of the customs practice at Kelley Drye & Warren, discusses the ins and out of what it will mean for companies importing to the US.

We also get into:

- The legal history of preventing goods produced by forced labor from being imported to the US.

- How companies could run into supply chain issues if any of their raw materials for goods come from Xinjiang.

- What it means for Chinese entities.

- The difficult appeals process for disputing customs seizures.
