DHS updates UFLPA Entity List: 43 new entities added
Date of publication: August 4, 2026.
On August 3, 2026, the Department of Homeland Security's Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force updated the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) Entity List, adding 43 entities and making technical corrections to two existing entries. The additions include four entities associated with labor-transfer programs and 41 entities identified as sourcing materials connected to Xinjiang or government labor schemes; two entities appear in both categories.
The update affects supply chains spanning aluminum and battery materials, lithium and potash, titanium, mining and metals, cotton and apparel, pharmaceuticals, food products, tomatoes, sugar, nuts, and agricultural goods. Notable additions include companies associated with aluminum foil, textiles, food, pharmaceuticals, mining, and Xinjiang-sourced raw materials.
Under the UFLPA, goods mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or partly by listed entities are subject to a rebuttable presumption of forced labor and are prohibited from entry into the United States unless the importer satisfies the applicable evidentiary standard. The Entity List is not exhaustive, so companies should continue to assess broader forced labor exposure beyond direct supplier-name matches.
Recommended next steps for importers:
- Screen suppliers, manufacturers, and upstream raw material providers against the updated Entity List, including listed aliases.
- Prioritize review of China-linked sourcing in the affected commodity sectors.
- Update origin, traceability, and supplier due diligence documentation.
- Escalate potential matches or Xinjiang sourcing indicators before shipment entry.
The updated list supersedes the version published on January 15, 2025 and is available through DHS and the Federal Register notice.
