Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

Chinese Garment Company Subject to New CBP Detention Order Due to Forced Labor Concerns
August 12, 2020 by Tim Warren|Customs

CBP issued a withhold release order for imported garments produced by the Hero Vast Group, the agency said in an Aug. 11 news release. Effective Aug. 11, CBP will stop goods produced by Hero Vast, which includes “Shanghai Hero Vast International Trading Co., Ltd.; Henan Hero Vast Garment Co., Ltd.; Yuexi Hero Vast Garment Co., Ltd.; Ying Han International Co., Ltd.; and Hero Vast Canada Inc.,” CBP said. It said the WRO is based on information that “that reasonably indicated the use of prison labor in the production of those garments.” Under the WRO, CBP will detain such cargo at all ports of entry. Importers of the goods can either re-export the detained shipments or provide information to CBP to demonstrate the goods are not produced with forced labor.
