Screening questions answered.

It evaluates four criteria in under two minutes: importer of record status, country of origin, HTS code presence, and import volume. Based on your answers, it provides a preliminary eligibility assessment and recommended next steps.

Yes. Completely free. No login, no account, no credit card. The tool runs in your browser and does not transmit or store your answers.

You will see a summary of your responses, an estimated exposure range, and a recommendation to request a full Impact Assessment at tariffresolution.com. The assessment analyzes your actual entry data to calculate your specific recoverable amount.

This means one or more criteria could not be confirmed from your answers alone. The checker provides specific verification steps -- typically a single question to your customs broker. Once verified, you can re-run the tool or proceed directly to a full assessment.

If your company imported physical goods into the United States between February 4, 2025 and February 24, 2026, and paid duties under HTS codes beginning with 9903.01 or 9903.02, you are likely affected. The eligibility checker walks you through confirming each criterion.

Screening is a two-minute self-check that determines whether a full assessment is warranted. It requires no import data. A full Impact Assessment analyzes your actual entry data from CBP, calculates your specific dollar exposure, identifies entries approaching protest deadlines, and presents all four recovery options side by side.

These are the Harmonized Tariff Schedule headings under which IEEPA tariffs were assessed. They appear on your CF-7501 entry summaries. If your entries include these codes, you paid IEEPA duties that may be refundable.

Under 19 U.S.C. section 1514, importers have 180 days from the date of liquidation to file a protest challenging the assessment of duties. For IEEPA entries, the clock is running on entries that have already been liquidated. If the window passes without a protest, options become significantly limited.

Yes. There is no minimum import value threshold. Whether your IEEPA exposure is $5,000 or $50 million, you may be eligible. However, the optimal recovery path differs by volume tier. Small importers may find self-directed recovery through CAPE most practical.

No. The screening tool requires only your general knowledge of your import activity. However, to verify HTS code presence (criterion 3) with certainty, one question to your customs broker provides a definitive answer.

CAPE (Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries) is new functionality CBP is building within ACE to process IEEPA tariff refunds at scale. It is expected to launch in spring 2026. Claims will be processed in filing order -- importers with validated data ready to submit will move first.

Tariff Refund Checker is part of the Tariff Solutions network. It was built after the February 2026 Supreme Court ruling to help importers quickly determine whether a full assessment is worth their time. Full assessments are available at tariffresolution.com.
