EU Forced Labor Regulation (FLR) Explained: What Customs Managers Must Know Before 2027

Описание: Learn everything customs managers and global trade professionals must know about the EU Forced Labor Regulation (FLR) and how it will reshape compliance, supply chain risk, and market access in the European Union before 2027. In this video we break down what the regulation is, why it matters to importers, and how to prepare your company now to avoid costly customs delays, enforcement actions, and market restrictions.

The EU Forced Labor Regulation introduces a product-based, proactive compliance obligation — meaning authorities may treat goods as “guilty until proven innocent” unless you can demonstrate they are free from forced labor risk. We cover the burden of proof, risk assessment, high-risk sourcing, and how competent authorities in the EU will enforce FLR at the border and beyond.
