flag U.S. ranks China Tier 3 for trafficking, citing forced labor and repression of minorities.

flag The U.S. State Department’s 2025 Trafficking in Persons Report again ranked China as a Tier 3 country, the lowest level, citing systemic forced labor, mass detentions, and exploitation of ethnic and religious minorities, particularly Uyghurs in Xinjiang. flag The report alleges the Chinese government uses vocational training centers and arbitrary detention to suppress cultural and religious identities while profiting from forced labor. flag It also highlights China’s role in transnational trafficking networks and links to illegal operations abroad. flag The U.S. has mandated annual rankings since 2020, with China consistently placed at the bottom alongside nations like North Korea, Iran, and Syria.
