How to Apply for Tariff Refunds

Applying for tariff refunds can be complex, especially when CBP requires precise CAPE Declaration filing through the ACE Secure Data Portal. Price Ridge helps U.S. Importers of Record confirm eligibility, gather CF7501 records, calculate refundable IEEPA duties, submit compliant filings, and track claims through disbursement—without requiring in-house customs expertise or upfront fees.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a refund on my tariffs?

Yes, U.S. Importers of Record may be able to get refunds for IEEPA tariffs paid on eligible 2025–2026 import entries. The refund is not automatic. You or an authorized broker must file a CAPE Declaration through CBP’s ACE Secure Data Portal, listing eligible entries and duty amounts in the required format.
