Reuters quoted a letter on the 16th as reporting that Chinese drone manufacturer DJI notified distributors that the US Customs and Border Protection restricted some drones from entering the US market on the grounds of the so-called “Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Law.” In response to an inquiry from the Global Times reporter on the 17th, DJI said that the US Customs and Border Protection had no reason to detain DJI's drones. DJI is providing documents to US Customs to prove that it complies with the UFLPA. DJI said that no stage of its drone manufacturing process involved forced labor. The accusation against DJI is completely unfounded and completely false. According to DJI, the move by the US side appears to be part of a broader initiative by the Department of Homeland Security to review the origin of products, particularly drones made in China. However, this incident is not a US government ban; it is only a customs issue, and it also seems unrelated to US congressional legislation on DJI.
