Trump Administration Launches Tariff Refund Portal. Here's What to Know.
CBP said eligible importers and customs brokers can file claims electronically, and valid refunds may be paid within 60 to 90 days.
- On April 20, U.S. Customs and Border Protection will launch the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries portal, enabling businesses to submit claims for tariff refunds deemed illegal by the Supreme Court.
- The Supreme Court ruled in February that President Donald Trump's International Emergency Economic Powers Act tariffs were illegal, leaving the government potentially owing up to $175 billion in refunds to importers.
- CBP confirmed the system initially covers only roughly 63% of duties, while Levinson said "these are absolutely not automatic refunds," requiring businesses to opt in and wait for approval.
- A recent CNBC survey found that executives do not plan to share refunds with American consumers, though some firms are purchasing refund claims to provide immediate cash to importers.
- Ernst & Young trade policy expert Blake Harden said time will tell if the system works, as the remaining 37% of entries face potential years of delays outside the initial portal.
