UFLPA History –
Signed into law on December 23, 2021 the law prohibited the import of goods from the Xianjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XAUR) of China. This law went into effect on June 21, 2022 by prohibiting imports into the United States any product manufactured in the XAUR.
On March 14, 2023, Customs and Border Protection implemented a new requirement to provide the actual manufacture of the goods from China (not the company your purchased the goods from) including the post code.
Why?
Customs and Border Protection now requires importers to declare the actual postcode of the manufacturer in China. This is due to most importers listing the company address they purchase they acquired the goods from rather than the actual manufacturer’s address.
Our Solution:
Vigilant’s use of technology can validate the manufacturer’s address and distinguish between the actual manufacturer and an agent, as well as perform a “See Through” of your supplier’s vendors, ensuring compliance with UFLPA regulations. It saves time and provides detailed reports to support import claims.

Managed Services Programs
Managed Services Programs have become a vital component of strategic compliance programs as companies are forced to reduce staffing budgets, pay more for compliance expertise, and limit technology spending while keeping up with the pace of their business objectives and compliance requirements. Vigilant offers client-specific programs, so that you can design a program with as few as one support service or as many as needed to keep you compliant.
