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").

CBP Posts Guidance on Submitting Proof of Admissibility for Goods Subject to WROs
August 7, 2020 |Customs

CBP posted a list of “helpful hints” for submitting proof of admissibility for goods subject to withhold release orders due to possible forced labor involvement. The fact sheet also includes information on how to request a WRO revocation or modification. “WROs/findings may be revoked or modified if evidence shows the subject merchandise was not made with forced labor, is no longer being produced with forced labor, or is no longer being, or likely to be, imported,” into the U.S., CBP said. Suggested helpful documentation includes copies of “recent unannounced third party audits,” company policies and “evidence of their implementation,” and remediation plans, CBP said. Also helpful are “supply chain maps that specify locations of manufacturers, factories, farms, processing centers,” it said.
