How it works

1

Upload (broker/CBP data)

Upload broker exports, ACE entry reports, entry summaries, and supporting docs. If you have a CBP entry report export, that works too.

2

Generate your Tariff Refund File

  • Entry list + supporting documentation index
  • IEEPA duty isolation (where identifiable)
  • "Missing items" request list for your broker/team
  • Deadline flags and preservation checklist
3

Preserve rights (CBP protest / PSC workflow support)

We prepare the documentation pack and workflow needed to preserve your position — especially when liquidation and protest timing matters.

4

Track updates (without endless emails)

  • Status
  • Deadlines
  • Next steps
  • Q&A Copilot trained on tariff refund workflows
5

Optional: Advance against eligible tariff refunds

If eligible, request market-rate financing to accelerate cash flow instead of waiting months or years.

IEEPA Tariff Refunds (Supreme Court Ruling)

Recent Supreme Court action on IEEPA tariffs has created significant IEEPA tariff refund demand — but refund mechanics are still procedural and timeline-dependent.

DutyClaims helps you:

  • Identify IEEPA tariff exposure from entry data
  • Preserve deadlines before rights expire
  • Prepare a filing-ready record for CBP workflows and potential escalation
  • Track deadlines and updates automatically

Don't Miss Tariff Refund Deadlines (Often 180 Days)

For many tariff refund pathways, timing is everything. Once entries liquidate, protest windows can be strict. If you wait, rights can expire even if the underlying tariffs later become refundable.

DutyClaims flags time-sensitive entries and generates a preservation checklist so your team knows what to do next — fast.

What Is a Tariff Refund?

A tariff refund is money returned when tariffs (or additional duties) were collected but later become refundable through legal, administrative, or procedural pathways — including overpayments, successful CBP protests, corrections, and other recognized recovery mechanisms.

DutyClaims does not replace your broker or counsel. We make tariff refund claims operational: clear inputs, structured outputs, deadline tracking, and a single source of truth for your team.
