Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match together (e.g. "China import").

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons to find either word (e.g. AD/CVD antidumping).

Acronyms: Use all capital letters (e.g., ACE).

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., CBP +releases).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted term, include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

CBP Targets Only $32 Million Worth of Shipments for Suspected Forced Labor in March
April 15, 2024 by Noah Garfinkel|Customs

CBP in March identified 749 shipments valued at more than $32 million for further examination based on the suspected use of forced labor, including goods subject to the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act and withhold release orders, the agency said in its most recent operational statistics update. The number of shipments detained is up from February's total of 540, but the value of those shipments is sharply down from the $306 million worth of shipments detained in February (see 2403220057). Also in March, CBP seized 1,633 shipments that contained counterfeit goods valued at more than $384 million if the items had been genuine, the agency said.
