CSMS # 65408039 - CORRECTION: Forced Labor Allegation Portal Rollout

On June 20, 2025, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will deploy the Forced Labor Allegation Portal, allowing trade users to submit forced labor allegations. Allegations may be submitted anonymously, and users will be able to view and upload supporting documents related to their submissions.

Key changes include:

• The portal link is https://flallegation.cbp.gov. Users will not be able to access the link until the deployment date of June 20, 2025.
• Users attempting to use CBP’s Trade Violations Reporting (TVR) system (also known as “e-Allegations”), will be redirected to the new Forced Labor Allegation Portal.
• These new capabilities streamline data transfer, coordination, and review between CBP’s Forced Labor Division (FLD), Office of Field Operations (OFO), and Centers of Excellence and Expertise (CEE).
• Quick Reference Guides (QRGs) on how to use the portal, as well as an instructional video, can be found on the CBP Forced Labor Website at https://www.cbp.gov/trade/forced-labor.
