Description
In this episode, Tim is joined by Kate Yin (Fangda Partners) and Miller & Chevalier's Richard Mojica and Virginia Newman to discuss due diligence and other issues arising from the newly implemented Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. The group walks through the basics of the UFLPA, the challenges it creates for U.S. importers, the industries it targets for enforcement, and the rebuttable presumption for items traced to Xinjiang province.  The group then turns to identify concrete steps companies are taking to comply with the UFLPA, including how companies are conducting necessary due diligence while at the same time navigating challenges posed by Chinese Anti-Foreign Sanctions law.    ******* Thanks to our guests for joining us: Kate Yin: https://www.fangdalaw.com/people/kate-yin/  Richard Mojica: https://www.millerchevalier.com/professional/richard-mojica  Virginia Newman: https://www.millerchevalier.com/professional/virginia-s-newman  Questions?
