CBP's new Forced Labor Allegation Portal and Forced Labor Portal will consolidate the information collection of potential forced labor violations into one centralized location, "increasing efficiency and reducing the burden of collection to both CBP and the public," the agency said in a notice seeking comments as it prepares to submit the information collection to the Office of Management and Budget.

Export Compliance Daily combines U.S. export control news, foreign border import regulation and policy developments into a single daily information service that reliably informs its trade professional readers about important current issues affecting their operations.
CBP currently collects information on potential forced labor and trade violations through a CBP website, and petitioners for revocation or mediation contact CBP via email.
The submissions would pertain to alleged forced labor or trade violations under Section 307 of the Tariff Act of 1930, the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015, the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act or the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act.
Comments on CBP's information sharing to OMB may be made through Nov. 14.
