Helping Businesses Across Every Industry Recover Tariffs
Tariffs imposed under IEEPA hit importers in nearly every sector, from manufacturers sourcing raw materials abroad to distributors and retailers moving finished goods. Whatever your business brings into the U.S., if you paid these duties, you're likely owed a refund. We recover eligible tariffs for businesses across every industry, managed from audit to payout.
One Ruling, Refunds Across Every Sector
IEEPA tariffs didn't single out an industry; they applied to imports broadly. That means the refund opportunity reaches just about any business that brought goods into the country, no matter what those goods were.
Broad by Design
IEEPA duties attached to imports across the board — raw materials, components, finished goods, and equipment alike. If your entries were charged under IEEPA, sector makes no difference to eligibility.
Same Question, Different Entries
Whether you import steel or sweaters, the eligibility question is the same: which entries paid IEEPA duties, and where do they sit in the liquidation timeline. That's what a recovery audit answers.
Refunds That Move the Needle
For import-reliant businesses in any sector, a year-plus of IEEPA duties often adds up to one of the largest one-time recoveries available — capital that goes straight back into operations.
The Industries We Recover Tariffs For
Different businesses carry duty in different ways, but the eligibility question is the same for all of them. Here's how recovery tends to look across the sectors we work with.
Manufacturers
Manufacturers importing raw materials, components, and production machinery carried some of the heaviest IEEPA exposure. If your inputs crossed the border over the past year, those duties are likely sitting in recoverable entries waiting to be claimed.
Tariff refunds for manufacturers →Importers & Distributors
Bringing goods in at volume means duties added up fast across hundreds of entries. We trace every IEEPA-charged shipment through your import history and recover what your business overpaid.
For importers → For distributors →Wholesalers & Retailers
Finished goods sourced overseas — apparel, housewares, general merchandise — were charged IEEPA duties at entry. Those charges are refundable, and we identify exactly which of your entries qualify.
E-Commerce Sellers
Direct-import sellers and online brands often move product through multiple suppliers and brokers, scattering duty records. We consolidate your entry history and surface every eligible refund.
Industrial & Equipment
Heavy machinery, tools, and replacement parts imported for operations carry significant duty. With high per-entry values, the recovery on even a handful of entries can be substantial.
Automotive & Parts
Vehicles, components, and aftermarket parts sourced abroad accumulated IEEPA duties across a complex supply chain. We untangle the entries and pursue the full refund on your behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers on tariff recovery across industries, who qualifies, how it works by business type, and what it's worth.
Almost certainly, if you paid IEEPA duties on imports. The ruling applied to imports broadly rather than to specific sectors, so manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, e-commerce sellers, and industrial importers can all be eligible. What matters isn't your industry, it's whether your entries were charged under IEEPA, which a TRG audit confirms.
The same way it does for any importer, with attention to the volume and complexity manufacturers usually carry. We trace duties across your raw materials, components, and equipment entries, separate the IEEPA-charged ones from non-refundable duties, and file to recover everything that qualifies.
That's common for distributors and e-commerce sellers, and it's exactly where refunds slip through the cracks. Duty records get scattered across importer-of-record numbers and brokers, so eligible entries are easy to miss. We consolidate your full entry history so nothing is left behind, even if part of it was handled elsewhere.
It depends on your import volume, countries of origin, HTS codes, and the IEEPA rates applied to each entry, so it varies widely by business and sector. Per CBP's own court filings, importers paid an estimated $166 billion in IEEPA duties overall. A TRG audit puts an exact, itemized figure in front of your business before you commit to anything.
Nothing upfront; our fee is fully contingency-based and comes out of the refund we recover. On timing, refund rights track liquidation status and filing windows, and those windows are closing as entries liquidate. Whatever your industry, the sooner we audit, the more there is to protect.
