Tariff Refund Services for Apparel & Textile Companies
The Supreme Court's decision on IEEPA tariffs opened the door to recovering billions in import duties paid by U.S. businesses, including apparel and textile companies importing clothing, fabrics, garments, and finished products. We help businesses identify eligible entries, navigate the claims process, and recover the tariff refunds they may be owed, from initial review through final payment.
Your Tariffs May Be Refundable. Getting Them Back Takes Work.
The Court invalidated IEEPA tariffs, but recovering duties already paid involves a process that's technical, deadline-driven, and still evolving. Entry status, liquidation timing, and filing requirements can all affect your recovery.
Multiple Imports, Different Refund Deadlines
Apparel and textile companies often import products across multiple suppliers, seasonal collections, and international shipments. CAPE declarations, protective protests, and CIT litigation may apply depending on each entry's liquidation status, duty exposure, and available recovery options.
Refund Requirements Keep Changing
CBP guidance, court rulings, and executive actions continue to shape the IEEPA tariff refund process. Missing an important update could affect your filing strategy or available recovery window.
Capital Tied Up in Clothing & Textile Imports
Tariffs increased the landed cost of clothing, fabrics, and textile products before they reached warehouses, retail stores, or distribution centers. Recovering eligible duties can free up capital for inventory purchases, supplier payments, new collections, and business growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about apparel tariff refunds, eligible clothing and textile imports, filing deadlines, the evolving CBP process, and how TRG manages recovery for apparel and textile companies.
Yes. Apparel and textile companies that acted as importers of record and paid eligible IEEPA duties may qualify for refunds following the Supreme Court's decision. This can include duties paid on imported clothing, fabrics, garments, and finished textile products. Eligibility depends on the individual entries and applicable recovery requirements.
Potentially. Clothing importers may qualify for refunds on eligible IEEPA duties paid when importing garments, apparel collections, and other textile products. However, not every customs duty paid on imported clothing is refundable. TRG reviews import records, duty payments, and importer-of-record information to identify available recovery opportunities.
Your potential refund depends on import volume, countries of origin, HTS classifications, tariff rates, and the duties paid across eligible entries. Companies importing large quantities of clothing, fabrics, or finished garments may have substantial amounts tied up in previously paid tariffs. A TRG audit calculates potential recovery entry by entry, providing a clear estimate before moving forward.
Yes. Available recovery options and filing deadlines can depend on the liquidation status of each import entry. Apparel and textile companies importing seasonal collections or maintaining regular international shipments may have different deadlines across their entries. Reviewing those entries early helps identify time-sensitive claims and protect available refund rights.
Nothing upfront. Our fee is fully contingency-based, starting as low as 1.5%, and comes from the refund we recover for you. There are no retainers or hourly fees, and if there's nothing to recover, there's nothing owed.
