IEEPA Tariff Refund Services: Recover Eligible Import Tariffs
Tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act were struck down as unlawful, and the duties collected under them are now eligible to be returned. We help U.S. importers identify their IEEPA-affected entries, file the right claims, and recover eligible import tariffs in full, managed from audit to payout.
IEEPA Tariffs Were Invalidated. Reclaiming Them Is Its Own Challenge.
The legal question is answered, but recovering IEEPA duties means sorting eligible entries from ineligible ones and moving before the windows close.
Not Every Duty Is an IEEPA Duty
IEEPA tariffs sit alongside Section 301, Section 232, and AD/CVD duties that aren't refundable. Separating what actually qualifies takes a line-by-line read of your entries.
Guidance That Keeps Moving
CBP direction and court rulings on IEEPA recovery are still evolving. A rule that applies to your entries this month may look different the next.
Duties Paid, Capital Gone
You've already handed over a year-plus of IEEPA duties. The money is recoverable, but it isn't back yet, and your operating costs never paused.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers on IEEPA tariff refunds, what IEEPA is, which duties qualify, and how recovery works.
IEEPA tariffs were duties imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, an emergency-powers statute. The Supreme Court ruled that IEEPA does not authorize the president to impose tariffs, which is why the duties collected under it are now eligible to be refunded to importers of record.
The refund reaches duties imposed under IEEPA across the covered window, including the country-specific "fentanyl" measures and the broader reciprocal tariffs. Duties under Section 301, Section 232, and AD/CVD are not IEEPA-based and are not refundable, which is why an entry-level audit matters. A TRG audit separates what qualifies from what doesn't before you commit to anything.
Per CBP's own court filings, hundreds of thousands of importers paid an estimated $166 billion in IEEPA duties, and with accrued interest, the total could climb higher. Your own refund depends on your import volume, countries of origin, HTS codes, and the IEEPA rates applied to each entry. A TRG audit puts an exact, itemized figure in front of you.
It begins with a free consultation and a full audit that isolates your IEEPA-charged entries. From there, we prepare your CAPE filing, handle any protective protests, monitor CBP and court developments, and manage the claim through to payment, so the entire recovery runs without you having to navigate IEEPA rules yourself.
Yes, timing is critical. Refund rights track liquidation status and filing windows, and once an entry's window closes, recovering it gets far harder. Many IEEPA entries are still open, but earlier-2025 entries are liquidating now, so some may be closer to the cutoff than you'd expect. The sooner we audit, the more we can protect.
