Alibaba Group and its U.S. payment unit, AUS Merchant Services, reached a nonprosecution agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice after admitting they failed to prevent illegal products—including pharmaceuticals and controlled substances—from being sold into the United States. The companies will pay a combined $600 million, including a $125 million criminal penalty and $390 million in forfeiture. The conduct spans January 2016 to December 2024 and involves roughly 80,000 unlawful sales tied to U.S. imports, with more than $200 million in gross merchandise value. Alibaba said it will strengthen compliance controls governing third-party merchants on its e-commerce platforms.
