Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc, collectively referred to as the Corporation, have filed a Specialized Disclosure Report (Form SD) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for the calendar year 2023. The report, filed on May 29, 2024, details the Corporation's compliance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act, which pertains to the sourcing of conflict minerals. Conflict minerals, as defined by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, include certain metals such as tantalum, tin, gold, and tungsten, which are sourced from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and adjoining countries. The Corporation conducted a Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI) and determined that the gold used in jewelry items they contracted to manufacture in 2023 does not originate from the covered countries. Suppliers provided certifications to support this claim. As a result of the RCOI, Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc have concluded that there is no reason to believe that the conflict minerals necessary for their products came from the DRC or its neighboring countries for the reported year. Consequently, no Conflict Minerals Report is required to be filed.
