As the agency has said in a multitude of prior rulings, it found processing in a third country of an API into measured doses isn’t a substantial transformation if it doesn’t change the medicinal use of the API. Italy is a country designated as allowed for U.S. government procurement, while India isn’t, CBP noted.

CRRC MA, the Massachusetts-based subsidiary of CRRC, issued a statement saying that the company has "maintained rigorous compliance reviews of all suppliers and confirms that no entity involved in these shipments is linked to any violation" of UFLPA, according to the TV station's report.
