Launch of the Forced Labor Portal

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is pleased to announce that the Forced Labor Portal is now live. 
The Forced Labor Portal is a centralized location for importers to submit review requests for shipments detained or excluded for forced labor enforcement. Depending on the type of review submitted, submission will be reviewed by CBP personnel in Forced Labor Division, or Port of Entry, or the Center of Excellence and Expertise. 
Effective, January 21, 2026, it is a mandatory requirement to use the Forced Labor Portal to submit the following review: 
 * Withhold Release Order/Finding admissibility reviews. 
 * Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act applicability reviews. 
 * Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act requests for exception; and 
 * Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act exception requests. 
The Portal is available at https://flportal.cbp.gov/s/login/ 
Also available are an instructional “how to” quick reference guide, video on submission of request, and recorded webinar on www.cbp.gov/trade/forced-labor [ https://www.cbp.gov/trade/forced-labor ] webpage.
