Importers seeking tariff refunds will be able to begin filing their requests on April 20, US Customs and Border Protection said on Friday.
In the first phase, the CBP’s Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries tool, called CAPE, will process paperwork for certain straightforward and recent import entries – leaving more complex refund scenarios for later.
The move comes as the administration looks to comply with the February ruling by the US Supreme Court that threw out duties that President Donald Trump had imposed using emergency powers.
More than 53 million import entries included those tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, underscoring the scale of what could become the largest repayment by the US government in its history.
In March, the Court of International Trade ordered the federal government to refund as much as US$170 billion, plus interest, paid by roughly 330,000 importers.
