DEPARTMENT OF STATE
[Public Notice 11271]
Request for Information for the 2021
Trafficking in Persons Report
Request for information for the
2021 Trafficking in Persons Report.
ACTION:
The Department of State (‘‘the
Department’’) requests written
information to assist in reporting on the
degree to which the United States and
foreign governments meet the minimum
standards for the elimination of
trafficking in persons (‘‘minimum
standards’’) that are prescribed by the
Trafficking Victims Protection Act of
2000, as amended (‘‘TVPA’’). This
information will assist in the
preparation of the Trafficking in Persons
Report (‘‘TIP Report’’) that the
Department submits annually to the
U.S. Congress on governments’ concrete
actions to meet the minimum standards.
Foreign governments that do not meet
the minimum standards and are not
making significant efforts to do so may
be subject to restrictions on
nonhumanitarian, nontrade-related
foreign assistance from the United
States, as defined by the TVPA.
Submissions must be made in writing to
the Office to Monitor and Combat
Trafficking in Persons at the Department
of State by February 1, 2021. Please refer
to the Addresses, Scope of Interest, and
Information Sought sections of this
Notice for additional instructions on
submission requirements.
DATES: Submissions must be received by
5 p.m. on February 1, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Written submissions and
supporting documentation may be
submitted by the following method:

SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001
assessing the United States’ and foreign
governments’ concrete actions to meet
the minimum standards for the
elimination of trafficking in persons
during the reporting period (April 1,
2020–March 31, 2021). The minimum
standards are listed in the Background
section. Submissions must include
information relevant to efforts to meet
the minimum standards and should
include, but need not be limited to,
answering the questions in the
Information Sought section.
Submissions need not include answers
to all the questions; only those
questions for which the submitter has
direct professional experience should be
answered, and that experience should
be noted. For any critique or deficiency
described, please provide a
recommendation to remedy it. Note the
country or countries that are the focus
of the submission.
Submissions may include written
narratives that answer the questions
presented in this Notice, research,
studies, statistics, fieldwork, training
materials, evaluations, assessments, and
other relevant evidence of local, state/
provincial, and federal/central
government efforts. To the extent
possible, precise dates and numbers of
officials or citizens affected should be
included.
Written narratives providing factual
information should provide citations of
sources, and copies of and links to the
source material should be provided.
Please send electronic copies of the
entire submission, including source
material. If primary sources are used,
such as research studies, interviews,
direct observations, or other sources of
quantitative or qualitative data, provide
details on the research or data-gathering
methodology and any supporting
documentation. The Department only
includes in the TIP Report information
related to trafficking in persons as
defined by the TVPA; it does not
include, and is therefore not seeking,
information on prostitution, migrant
smuggling, visa fraud, or child abuse,
unless such crimes also involve the
elements of sex trafficking or forced
labor.
Confidentiality: Please provide the
name, phone number, and email address
of a single point of contact for any
submission. It is Department practice
not to identify in the TIP Report
information concerning sources to
safeguard those sources. Please note,
however, that any information
submitted to the Department may be
releasable pursuant to the provisions of
the Freedom of Information Act or other
applicable law. Submissions related to
the United States will be shared with

U.S. government agencies, as will
submissions relevant to efforts by other
U.S. government agencies.
Response: This is a request for
information only; there will be no
response to submissions.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
1. Background
Definitions: The TVPA defines
‘‘severe forms of trafficking in persons’’
as:
• Sex trafficking: The recruitment,
harboring, transportation, provision,
obtaining, patronizing, or soliciting of a
person for the purpose of a commercial
sex act that is induced by force, fraud,
or coercion, or in which the person
induced to perform such act has not
attained 18 years of age.
• Forced labor (also known as labor
trafficking): The recruitment, harboring,
transportation, provision, or obtaining
of a person for labor or services, through
the use of force, fraud, or coercion, for
the purposes of involuntary servitude,
peonage, debt bondage, or slavery.
• Child soldiering: Child soldiering is
a form of human trafficking when a
government armed group, (including
police or other security force),
paramilitary organization, rebel group,
or other non-state armed group
unlawfully recruits or uses children—
through force, fraud, or coercion—as
combatants or in other support roles,
including as cooks, porters, guards,
messengers, medics, guards, servants,
spies, or sex slaves.
The TIP Report: The TIP Report is the
most comprehensive worldwide report
on governments’ efforts to combat
trafficking in persons. It represents an
annually updated, global look at the
nature and scope of trafficking in
persons and the broad range of
government actions to confront and
eliminate it. The U.S. government uses
the TIP Report to inform diplomacy, to
encourage partnership in creating and
implementing laws and policies to
combat trafficking, and to target
resources on prevention, protection, and
prosecution programs. Worldwide,
international organizations, foreign
governments, and nongovernmental
organizations use the TIP Report as a
tool to examine where resources are
most needed. Prosecuting traffickers,
protecting victims, and preventing
trafficking are the ultimate goals of the
TIP Report and of the U.S government’s
anti-trafficking policy.
The Department prepares the TIP
Report with information from across the
U.S. government, foreign government
officials, nongovernmental and
international organizations, survivors of
trafficking in persons, published
