About this webinar
In August, the U.S. government added 43 companies to the UFLPA Entity List in a single day, a 30% jump that brought the list to 187 entities and marked the largest expansion in the program's history. Kharon had already identified 41 of those 43 as posing a forced-labor risk, in some cases years before they were formally listed.
This training workshop, led by Kharon subject matter experts, will walk through the UFLPA's core provisions, current enforcement trends, and what U.S. government guidance expects importers to do to verify their shipments are lawful. We'll also cover the specific forced-labor risk indicators U.S. authorities have published, and explain how Kharon's research analysts apply them to identify and flag high-risk entities in China and well beyond it.
That matters for compliance teams outside the U.S., too. The UFLPA's rebuttable presumption doesn't stop at China's border; it follows a flagged input downstream, regardless of where the finished product is ultimately assembled or sold. Understanding where that risk lays within a supply chain is critical for organizations selling into the U.S. For EU-based companies, that exposure now sits alongside a second, complementary obligation under the EU's own Forced Labour Regulation, set to take full effect in December 2027. A follow-up workshop on the EU Forced Labour Regulation will follow soon.
What you’ll walk away with:
A clear grasp of the UFLPA rebuttable presumption: what it covers, and how far downstream it reaches.
