Question 1

Can I still get an IEEPA tariff refund in ${city.city} after the Supreme Court ruling?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On February 20, 2026 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump (consolidated with Trump v. V.O.S. Selections) that IEEPA does not authorize the President to impose tariffs, striking down the IEEPA-based duties, which terminated on February 24, 2026. The Court returned the handling of refunds to the U.S. Court of International Trade. If your ${city.city}-area entries paid IEEPA add-on duties, you are potentially eligible for a refund with interest — but only if you preserve the claim by filing a protective protest within the deadline.

Question 2

What is the deadline to claim my ${city.city} IEEPA tariff refund?

Accepted Answer

The controlling deadline is 180 days from the date of liquidation of each entry, under 19 U.S.C. § 1514, to file a CBP protest. Because each of your ${primaryPort} entries liquidates on its own schedule, the deadlines are rolling — some may already be running. We run an ACE entry-summary analysis of your entries, calendar every liquidation date, file protective protests, and pursue an action at the U.S. Court of International Trade under 28 U.S.C. § 1581 where CBP denies relief.

Question 3

How much does an IEEPA tariff refund attorney cost?

Question 4

My ${city.city} entries already liquidated — is it too late for an IEEPA refund?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. The 180-day protest deadline under 19 U.S.C. § 1514 runs from the date each entry liquidated, not from the Supreme Court decision, so entries that liquidated recently are usually still inside the window. For entries whose 180 days have passed, options are narrower but not always closed — the U.S. Court of International Trade's residual jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i) may still reach the refund-and-interest question. Because the clock runs entry-by-entry, the entries most at risk should be reviewed first — send us your ACE data and we will tell you which ${city.city} entries are still recoverable.

Question 5

Do I need a customs broker or a customs attorney to recover IEEPA duties?

Accepted Answer

A customs broker can file your entries, but only a licensed customs attorney can file the protective protests, take a denied protest to the U.S. Court of International Trade, and litigate the refund and interest. The IEEPA refund turns on legal questions — liquidation timing, protest strategy, and the § 1514/§ 1581 procedural path — that are the practice of law, not entry filing. Attorney Anatolii Trembach holds an LL.M. in International Business and Economic Law and is admitted to the Court of International Trade, and works alongside your broker so nothing falls through the cracks.
