Watch: filed lawn-mower AD/CVD revocation is scheduled for September 8 publication

A public-inspection notice schedules revocation of the specified lawn-mower orders, with instructions addressing covered entries from July 13, 2026. Final publication is scheduled for September 8. Do not assume every mower or engine is now deposit-free: written scope, final publication and CBP instructions must be checked. Separate small-engine orders are not revoked by this notice. Gateway has added a watch warning and has not automatically removed deposits based only on the pre-publication filing.

Effective: Filed September 4; scheduled publication September 8, 2026; intended revocation covers entries from July 13, 2026

Van-Type Trailers From China: Final AD and CVD Determinations, Orders Expected After the ITC Vote

THE RATES. Antidumping: Commerce applied adverse facts available to the China-wide entity, a 130.86 percent dumping margin and a 129.73 percent cash deposit rate after the export-subsidy offset. No company received a separate rate. Countervailing: 134.75 percent for CIMC Baowell Industries and Qingdao CIMC Reefer Trailer, for the non-responsive companies, and as the all-others rate. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. The U.S. International Trade Commission makes its final injury determination next. If it is affirmative, Commerce issues the orders and CBP collects cash deposits at these rates on entries from the order date. If it is negative, the proceedings end and deposits are refunded. WHAT TO DO. Importers of Chinese van-type trailers should price shipments at the combined deposit of roughly 264 percent of entered value until the orders issue, and expect the orders to publish in the Federal Register within days of an affirmative ITC vote.

Effective: Cash deposits continue under the preliminary determinations. Antidumping and countervailing duty orders issue only if the ITC makes a final affirmative injury determination, expected in October 2026.

CBP Seeks Comment on Heightened Import Disclosures for Supply Chain Visibility

THE ACTION. CBP is asking for public comment before proposing rules that would give it greater visibility into the supply chains behind imported goods. It is not a rule yet and imposes no new requirement. WHAT CBP IS CONSIDERING. Fuller identification of the parties in an importation, including whether the manufacturer identification code should carry the actual company name and address and whether it should be provided at entry, entry summary and on the manifest. Technical solutions for tracing supply chains. Collection of the foreign export documentation that exporters already file with their own customs authority, and whether CBP should verify it with foreign customs administrations. Different treatment for CTPAT-validated importers. WHAT TO DO. Importers, brokers and forwarders with views on data burden, lead times for foreign export documents, or CTPAT treatment should file comments at regulations.gov under docket USCBP-2026-1058 within the 90-day window.

Effective: Advance notice of proposed rulemaking published September 2, 2026. Comments are due 90 days after publication under docket USCBP-2026-1058. No requirements change yet.

Counter-Tariff (Canada)Aug 27, 2026

Canada Retaliates: 15, 25 and 50 Percent Counter-Tariffs on U.S. Goods From September 8

THE COUNTERMEASURE. Effective 12:01 a.m. on September 8, 2026, Canada imposes tariffs of 15, 25 and 50 percent on products of the United States. Ottawa states the individual product rate is based on the matching U.S. rate for the same goods, and that covered products are drawn from those targeted by U.S. Section 338 and Section 232 tariffs. Canada frames this as matching the U.S. action dollar for dollar. The 27.6 billion dollar figure Ottawa cites is the value of Canadian goods hit by the U.S. 50 percent Section 338 tariff on August 22, not a separately published total for the Canadian measure. WHO IT HITS. Targeted sectors are steel and aluminum, dairy, appliances, agricultural equipment, pulp and paper, plastics, and electronics. Two conditions must both be true: the good is U.S.-origin, and its 8-digit Canadian tariff item appears on the published counter-tariff list. ORIGIN IS NOT WHERE YOU BOUGHT IT. Buying from a U.S. company, or shipping out of a U.S. port, does not by itself make a good U.S.-origin. Origin is where the good was produced or substantially transformed. A Chinese-made part sold by a U.S. distributor and shipped from Chicago is not U.S.-origin and is not caught by this measure. GOODS IN TRANSIT ARE EXEMPT. Canada has confirmed that U.S. goods already in transit when the measure comes into force are not subject to the counter-tariffs. Departure before September 8 is what matters, so shipments moving now should carry date evidence. THIS MIRRORS THE AUGUST 22 U.S. ACTION. The United States applied an additional 50 percent under Section 338 to 554 Canadian subheadings on August 22, and USMCA qualification does not exempt a good from it. Canada's response is built from the same product base. If you move freight both directions across this border you now have exposure on both legs, scoped independently. WHAT OUR CALCULATOR COVERS. The Gateway tariff engine computes U.S. import duty, including the August 22 Section 338 duty on Canadian goods entering the United States and its Section 232 and civil-aircraft carve-outs. It does not compute Canadian duty on U.S. goods entering Canada: that is a different country's tariff schedule, keyed to Canadian tariff items we do not hold, and we will not publish a number we cannot source. For the northbound leg, check your 8-digit Canadian tariff item against the Department of Finance list and confirm with your customs broker.

Polysilicon Section 232: 15% Duty Plus Minimum Import Prices on Solar Cells, Modules, Ingots and Wafers

Proclamation signed August 6, 2026 adjusts imports of polysilicon and its derivatives under Section 232. Nothing is collectible before 12:01 a.m. eastern time on December 4, 2026. THE 15% DUTY. An additional 15 percent ad valorem duty applies to polysilicon ingots and wafers, solar cells and solar modules under new HTSUS heading 9903.45.30. It stacks on top of existing duties, including Section 301 and AD/CVD. Raw polysilicon under 2804.61.0000 is not subject to the 15 percent adder. THE MINIMUM IMPORT PRICE. Floors of $21 per kilogram for polysilicon, $100 per kilogram for ingots and wafers, $0.22 per watt for solar cells and $0.38 per watt for solar modules, imposed as specific duties under headings 9903.45.33 through 9903.45.36. These MIP duties are conditional, not automatic. They apply only where the importer fails to submit resale documentation to CBP at entry, or where CBP adjusts the assessed duty. They do not apply where the entered value meets or exceeds the floor and the goods will not be resold below it, or where the goods move under fixed terms in a contract entered into before August 6, 2026. A materially inaccurate certification permanently prohibits the importer and its affiliates from importing these products. COUNTRY ADJUSTMENTS. For products of Liechtenstein, Japan, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan and European Union members, the Column 1 rate plus the additional duty totals 15 percent under heading 9903.45.31. Products of the United Kingdom carry a 10 percent adder under heading 9903.45.32. SCOPE AND STATUS. Covered products are set by Annexes I and II to the proclamation and by new U.S. note 42 to subchapter III of chapter 99. UPDATE, August 16: the proclamation published August 11, 2026 as 91 FR 51975 (FR Doc. 2026-16400). One caution on the heading numbers above: the live USITC schedule has since assigned 9903.45.30 and 9903.45.31 to the separate quartz surface products safeguard, so the polysilicon headings are expected to be renumbered or technically corrected before the December 4 effective date. The annexes are image scans and USITC has not yet published the polysilicon provisions. Rates and dates are unchanged.

Commerce's preliminary determination requires a 10.17% CVD cash deposit for voestalpine Tubulars and all other producers/exporters of covered Austrian OCTG, for entries from publication on September 3. This is additional to other applicable duties, not the complete import duty. SCOPE CHECK REQUIRED. The written scope controls, including chromium and product exclusions.

Executive Order Prohibits Imports of Foreign-Adversary Bulk-Power System Equipment

THE ACTION. The President declared a national emergency over foreign exploitation of the U.S. bulk-power system and prohibited the acquisition, importation, transfer or installation of foreign-produced bulk-power system electric equipment where the Secretary of Energy determines the transaction involves a covered foreign country or entity and poses a risk to the system. SCOPE. Bulk-power system means the facilities and control systems needed to operate the interconnected transmission network, including lines rated 69,000 volts or more. It does not include local distribution facilities. WHAT IT IS NOT. This is an import prohibition, not a tariff. No duty rate changes and nothing is added to a tariff calculation. Equipment already cleared before the order is not covered; the order reaches transactions initiated after August 26, 2026. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. The Department of Energy, with OMB, Commerce, Homeland Security, the Director of National Intelligence and the Department of War, is to issue rules within 120 days that identify covered countries and persons, name equipment warranting scrutiny, and set up licensing for otherwise prohibited transactions. WHAT TO DO. Utilities and EPC contractors importing grid equipment should review pending purchase contracts for foreign-produced transformers, switchgear and control systems and prepare for country-of-origin screening once the rules publish.

Effective: Applies to transactions initiated after the order date of August 26, 2026 (published August 31, 2026); implementing rules are due from the Department of Energy within 120 days.

Beef Trimmings TRQ Expanded by 300,000 Metric Tons for 2026, First Tranche Opens September 1

THE ACTION. The President increased the calendar-year 2026 in-quota quantity under Additional U.S. Note 3 to Chapter 2 of the HTSUS by 300,000 metric tons. The added quantity applies only to lean beef trimmings classified in statistical reporting numbers 0201.30.5091, 0201.30.5097, 0202.30.5091 and 0202.30.5097. HOW IT IS ADMINISTERED. First come, first served, in three 30-day tranches of 100,000 metric tons each: September 1 through September 30, October 1 through October 30, and October 31 until the quantity fills or November 30, 2026, whichever comes first. WHAT DOES NOT CHANGE. The in-quota and over-quota duty rates are unchanged. This is a quantity increase only. Argentina's separate allocation under Proclamation 11010 of February 6, 2026 is not affected. CONDITIONS. The Secretary of Agriculture and the Trade Representative will monitor whether trimmings entered under the added quantity are sold at a price 25 percent below the market price. The President stated he may end the increase if imported ground beef is not sold at a discount. WHAT TO DO. Importers of lean trimmings should time entries to the tranche windows and confirm quota fill status with CBP before entry, because entries after a tranche fills pay the over-quota rate.

Effective: In effect for lean beef trimmings entered on or after September 1, 2026, in three tranches: September 1 to 30, October 1 to 30, and October 31 to November 30, 2026.

USTR Conforms Four China Section 301 Exclusions to the July 1 Statistical Code Changes

THE ACTION. USTR amended four China Section 301 product exclusions, U.S. notes 20(vvv)(i)(4), (i)(5), (i)(6) and (iv)(4), so that they continue to cover the same products after the U.S. International Trade Commission changed the ten-digit statistical reporting numbers on July 1, 2026. THE NEW NUMBERS. The three pump-part exclusions now read 'through June 30, 2026; described in statistical reporting numbers 8413.91.9039, 8413.91.9046, 8413.91.9059 or 8413.91.9099 effective July 1, 2026'. The plastics exclusion that referenced 3926.90.9910 now also covers 3926.90.9915 and 3926.90.9920 effective July 1, 2026. NO RATE CHANGE. Nothing is added or removed from the Section 301 lists and no duty rate moves. The amendments keep the pre-existing coverage of the exclusions intact under the renumbered codes. These exclusions apply to products meeting the written description, not to every entry under the statistical number. WHAT TO DO. Importers claiming these four exclusions on entries since July 1, 2026 should use the new statistical reporting numbers and watch for CBP entry guidance, which the notice says will follow.

Canada Section 338 50% duty is now in effect after a three-day suspension

THE DUTY IS LIVE. An additional 50% ad valorem now applies to 554 listed subheadings that are products of Canada, for goods entered for consumption or withdrawn from warehouse on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern time on August 22, 2026. The authority is Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, a different lever from Section 232, Section 301 or IEEPA. The covered lists are U.S. note 51 subdivisions (b)(1), (b)(2) and (b)(3), under HTSUS headings 9903.03.12, 9903.03.13 and 9903.03.14. THE DATE MOVED, AND THREE DAYS ARE REFUNDABLE. The duty was originally set for August 19. Proclamation 11056 of August 18, 2026 (91 FR 54789) suspended all three underlying proclamations for three days and reset the effective date to August 22. If you entered covered Canadian goods on August 19, 20 or 21 and were charged the additional 50%, clause (4) of that proclamation directs CBP to process refunds under its standard procedures. Check your entry summaries for those three days. CLASSIFY AGAINST THE ANNEX, NOT THE TITLE. The three proclamations are named for the Canadian measures they offset, being alcoholic beverages, dairy and motor vehicles. Those titles describe the grievance, not the goods. The covered lists are broad retaliation baskets that reach honey, cut flowers, essential oils, candles, printing ink, cement, plywood, textiles, glassware, jewellery, tools and works of art. Do not assume your product is clear because it has nothing to do with cars or cheese. WHAT IS CARVED OUT. Articles already subject to Section 232 duties are exempt under heading 9903.03.15, and civil aircraft and parts meeting General Note 6 are exempt under 9903.03.16. Unmanned aircraft are expressly excluded from that aircraft exception. ENTRY DATE CONTROLS. It is the date of entry for consumption that matters, not the date the truck left Canada. Negotiations between the United States and Canada are continuing, so this date has moved once already and could move again.

Quartz Surface Products: Section 201 Safeguard Tariff-Rate Quota Now In Effect (25% In-Quota, 50% Over)

THE SAFEGUARD. Proclamation 11051 imposes a four-year Section 201 safeguard on imported quartz surface products, in the form of a tariff-rate quota. It took effect for goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern time on August 15, 2026. In-quota entries pay an additional 25 percent under new HTSUS heading 9903.45.30. Entries after the quota fills pay 50 percent under heading 9903.45.31. The duty is cumulative: U.S. note 41(b) imposes it on top of the normal chapter 68 or 70 duty, and antidumping and countervailing duties continue to apply. WHAT IS COVERED. Engineered quartz slabs and surfaces, the material used for countertops and vanity tops, classified under 6810.99.0020, 6810.99.0040 and 7020.00.6000. The scope covers surfaces made predominantly from silica products such as quartz, quartz powder, cristobalite or glass powder with a resin binder. Quarried stone such as granite, marble, soapstone and quartzite is not covered. THE QUOTA. 13,006,426 square meters may enter at the in-quota rate in the first year, administered in quarterly tranches of 3,251,606 square meters with unused quantity rolling one quarter forward. CBP opened quota processing on August 17, 2026, with proration at 8:30 a.m. eastern if opening entries exceed the limit. The measure steps down each August 15: 23/49 percent in 2027, 21/48 in 2028, 19/47 in 2029, and it ends August 14, 2030. WHO IS EXEMPT. Canada and Mexico are excluded under USMCA findings. Australia, Colombia, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Israel, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Singapore and South Korea are excluded under their trade agreements. Roughly one hundred listed developing countries and the CBERA Caribbean countries are also excluded, each subject to a 3 percent import-share cap. India, China, Vietnam, Turkey, Spain, Italy and Malaysia, the largest covered sources, are NOT exempt. FILING. Entries are filed on two lines: the chapter 99 heading first, then the chapter 68 or 70 subheading, with quantity reported in square meters. Merchandise admitted to a foreign trade zone on or after August 15 must be admitted as privileged foreign status. Existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on quartz surface products from China and India continue to apply on top of the safeguard.

UK Pharmaceuticals: Section 232 Rate Cut from 10% to 0% (HTSUS 9903.04.63)

Commerce (Bureau of Industry and Security) has revised the tariff rate on patented pharmaceuticals and associated pharmaceutical ingredients that are products of the United Kingdom from 10 percent to zero percent. HTSUS heading 9903.04.63 is amended by deleting "+10%" in each place it appears and inserting "+0%" in lieu thereof. This is the mechanism Proclamation 11020 built in on April 2, 2026: it directed the Secretary to publish a Federal Register notice reducing the UK rate to zero to the extent required by any future US-UK pharmaceutical pricing agreement. That agreement was concluded the same day, and this notice executes the reduction. SCOPE NOTE: this is UK-specific and does not touch the wider Section 232 pharmaceutical action. The 100 percent duty still applies to companies named in Annex III to Proclamation 11020 from July 31, 2026, and to all other importers from September 29, 2026. Gateway status: the Gateway tariff engine applies the 0 percent UK rate and has done since the effective date.

UFLPA Entity List: 43 Companies Added (187 Total), Largest-Ever Expansion — an Import BAN, Not a Duty

DHS, on behalf of the Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force, added 43 companies to the UFLPA Entity List, taking it from 144 to 187 entities. That is a 30 percent increase and the single largest expansion since the UFLPA was enacted. Effective for goods entered on or after August 3, 2026, CBP applies a rebuttable presumption that goods produced by these entities are prohibited from entering the United States. This is not a tariff and it does not change any duty rate. It is an admissibility bar under 19 U.S.C. 1307: covered goods are refused entry, and no payment makes them admissible. That is the opposite of the Section 301 forced labor duties effective July 24, 2026, where covered goods do enter and the importer simply pays more. An importer can owe the July 24 duty and still be stopped by this list on the same container. Two features decide who is exposed. There is no de minimis threshold, because the statute reaches goods produced wholly or in part by a listed entity, so any traceable input can support detention of an entire shipment. And the presumption attaches to the entity rather than the region, so goods from a listed company are covered even when that company sits far outside Xinjiang and the shipment contains no Xinjiang origin material. Several newly listed companies are in Shandong, Jiangsu, Henan, Fujian, Anhui, Hunan and Shaanxi, which is where screening built around geography goes blind. Four entities were added under section 2(d)(2)(B)(ii) and forty-one under section 2(d)(2)(B)(v). Rebutting the presumption requires clear and convincing evidence with complete upstream supply chain documentation, assembled before the container ships. Since the UFLPA took effect, CBP has denied entry to more than 24,300 shipments valued at nearly $1 billion.

Section 232 Pharmaceuticals: 100% Duty In Effect for Annex III Companies (Jul 31); All Other Importers Sep 29, 2026

The April 2, 2026 Proclamation imposes a default 100% Section 232 tariff on patented pharmaceutical products and active pharmaceutical ingredients identified in Annex I, with country-of-origin caps that override the default for trade-deal partners. US-origin pharmaceuticals are exempt entirely. United Kingdom origin is capped at 10% (reducible to 0% under a future bilateral pricing agreement). Japan, European Union member states, South Korea, and Switzerland and Liechtenstein jointly are capped at 15%. All other origins pay the 100% default. Section 3(d) provides categorical 0% carve-outs that apply regardless of origin: orphan drugs (Orphan Drug Act designation for all approved indications), nuclear medicines, plasma-derived therapies, fertility treatments, cell and gene therapies, antibody drug conjugates, medical countermeasures for chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats, and animal-health pharmaceuticals. Effective dates are split: designated companies in Annex III begin paying on July 31, 2026; all other importers begin on September 29, 2026. Importer-specific reductions stack underneath the origin cap: an approved onshoring plan reduces the rate to 20% until it rises to 100% on April 2, 2030; Annex II companies with both onshoring plans and HHS MFN pricing pay 0% until that benefit expires on January 20, 2029. Generic pharmaceuticals and biosimilars are exempt at this time, conditional on a Secretary of Commerce review within one year. Gateway calculator now applies the origin cap automatically and surfaces the full tier breakdown so importers can identify which reduction may apply.

Plywood: Final AD/CVD Determinations Against China, Vietnam and Indonesia (China-Wide Dumping Margin 187.27%)

Commerce issued final affirmative antidumping and countervailing duty determinations on hardwood and decorative plywood from China, Vietnam and Indonesia, all published July 21, 2026. Six determinations in total, two per country. The China-wide entity received a dumping margin of 187.27 percent after Commerce found it uncooperative. Rates in these cases are exporter-specific, so the margin that applies to your cargo depends on which producer and exporter made it. Check your supplier's own case rate rather than assuming the country-wide number. Commerce also made a final affirmative determination of critical circumstances for China. That allows duties to be applied retroactively to entries made up to 90 days before suspension of liquidation began, so cargo that shipped before the determination can still be caught. This is not the end of the process. The ITC still has to make its final injury determination, and the antidumping and countervailing duty orders issue only after that. Cash deposits are being collected at the final rates in the meantime. If you import plywood from any of these three origins, identify your producer case rate now and review entries falling inside the retroactive window.

Effective: Commerce issued final determinations on July 21, 2026 and cash deposits are required at the final rates. Critical circumstances were found affirmative for China, so duties can reach back 90 days before suspension of liquidation. The ITC final injury vote and the resulting orders are still to come.

Canada: Additional 50% Duty on Vehicles, Dairy and Alcoholic Beverages Effective August 22, 2026 (Section 338)

DATE CORRECTED. This entry originally stated an August 19, 2026 effective date. Proclamation 11056 of August 18, 2026 (91 FR 54789) suspended Proclamations 11046, 11047 and 11048 for three days and reset the effective date to 12:01 a.m. eastern time on August 22, 2026. Duties collected on entries made August 19 through 21 are refundable under clause (4) of that proclamation. Three presidential proclamations published on July 23, 2026 impose an additional 50 percent ad valorem duty on listed Canadian-origin goods under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930. Each creates a chapter 99 heading that adds 50% to the applicable subheading: 9903.03.12 (FR 2026-14991), 9903.03.13 (FR 2026-14992) and 9903.03.14 (FR 2026-14997), with the covered subheadings listed in U.S. note 51. The duties take effect for goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern time on August 19, 2026. Nothing is collectible before that moment. IMPORTANT ON SCOPE: the proclamations are captioned for the disputes that prompted them (alcoholic beverages, dairy, motor vehicles), but the covered-product annexes are separate retaliation lists and in two of the three cases bear no relation to the caption. Classify against Annex II or CBP guidance, not against the sector in the title. Gateway status: the duty is modelled in every Gateway duty engine and is date-gated to the effective moment, so it shows as upcoming until August 19. The dairy list is loaded in full. The other two annexes are published only as page images, so a Canadian line outside the loaded list is reported as unverified rather than clear. Those two lists have now been extracted from the proclamation PDFs and verified against the tariff schedule, and are being wired in ahead of the effective date.

Effective: In effect for goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern time on August 22, 2026, as reset by Proclamation 11056.

Section 122 Expired July 24; New Section 301 Forced Labor Duties of 10% to 12.5% Now Apply to 60 Economies

The Section 122 global surcharge of 10 percent expired by operation of law at 12:01 a.m. eastern time on July 24, 2026, 150 days after it took effect. Congress did not extend it and it is no longer collected. The same morning, USTR final action in the Section 301 forced labor investigations imposed additional duties on all products of 60 economies: 12.5 percent for 38 economies that failed to impose or enforce a forced labor import prohibition (including China, Brazil, Vietnam and Russia), and 10 percent for 17 economies that have a prohibition or committed to one (including Canada, Mexico, India and the United Kingdom). Five economies are treated net of MFN rather than as a flat addition. For the European Union and Taiwan the Section 301 duty tops the column 1 rate up to 10 percent; for Japan, South Korea and Switzerland it tops up to 12.5 percent. Where the existing column 1 rate already meets or exceeds that ceiling, the additional duty is zero. IN TRANSIT RELIEF, TIME LIMITED: goods loaded onto a vessel and in transit on the final mode of transit before 12:01 a.m. eastern time on July 24, 2026 are exempt only if entered for consumption before 12:01 a.m. eastern time on July 28, 2026. Key exemptions include chapter 98 entries, civil aircraft and parts, pharmaceuticals, articles already subject to Section 232 duties (steel, aluminum, copper, autos and parts, medium and heavy duty vehicles, wood, semiconductors), USMCA qualifying goods from Canada and Mexico, and CAFTA-DR textiles and apparel.

Confirmed operative scope: phosphate fertilizers of Morocco enter free of the collection of duties and deposits of estimated duties under 19 U.S.C. 1671, 1675 and 1677j, which suspends the countervailing duty stream on Moroccan phosphate for the window.

CBP CAPE Phase 1: 75K Declarations Filed; First IEEPA Refunds Underway

UPDATE — May 12, 2026: IEEPA refunds are now underway. In CBP's follow-up filing with the CIT, as of May 11, 2026 approximately 8,338,081 accepted entries had been liquidated or reliquidated without IEEPA duties, with an estimated refund and interest amount of roughly $35.46 billion (principal plus statutory interest). The U.S. Treasury was set to begin issuing ACH refund payments on or about May 12 for approved claims; only a portion of processed entries had been transmitted to Treasury at the time of the filing, so payments are beginning rather than complete. Valid refunds are generally expected within 60 to 90 days of CAPE Declaration acceptance, absent a compliance review. --- Original Apr 28 progress report (data as of Apr 26) --- CBP filed a Phase 1 status report with the Court of International Trade (CIT) on Apr 28, 2026 detailing CAPE refund tool progress as of Apr 26. Numbers (as of Apr 26, 2026): - 75,306 CAPE Declarations submitted - 47,315 passed file validations and prepared for refund - 11,222,927 entries covered (~21% of all IEEPA-affected entries) - ~1,740,000 entries (~3% of total) liquidated and in refund process - First refund expected to issue on or about May 11, 2026 Next milestones: - May 11, 2026: First IEEPA refunds expected to issue - May 12, 2026: Next CBP progress report due to CIT (ordered by Judge Eaton) Follow-up to Apr 22 entry (a19c0cf7) on CAPE Portal launch. Importers who have not yet filed should expedite — Phase 1 covers unliquidated entries and entries within 80 days of liquidation. Use Gateway IEEPA Refund Calculator to estimate amount before filing.

HTSUS 9903.82.01 Created — Duty-Free for Non-Metal Goods in Ch. 72/73/74/76

Commerce published a Federal Register notice creating a new zero-rate Chapter 99 subheading 9903.82.01 covering goods classified under HTSUS Chapters 72, 73, 74, or 76 that do not contain iron, steel, copper, or aluminum. Key points: - Effective: Apr 27, 2026 (RETROACTIVE to Apr 6, 2026 — the effective date of Proclamation 11021 that overhauled the Section 232 metals tariff regimes) - Fills a gap where the existing 9903.82.03 exemption for low-metal-content goods specifically excluded products classifiable in those four chapters - Practical effect: Importers who were charged 50% (commodity) or 25% (derivative) Section 232 on misclassified non-metal articles in those chapters now have a refund/exemption pathway - Importers should review classifications against actual product composition and file Post-Summary Corrections (PSC) for affected entries Calculator status: Gateway calculator currently applies default Section 232 rates to all goods in those chapters based on HTS code alone. The 9903.82.01 exemption is conditional on actual metal content — verify with your customs broker before relying on the duty-free rate.

CAPE Portal Now Live — IEEPA Refund Filing Open

CBP officially launched the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE) portal inside the ACE Secure Data Portal on April 20, 2026 at 8:00 AM ET. What you can file now: - Phase 1 accepts refund claims for unliquidated entries and entries up to 80 days past their liquidation date (about 63% of all entries that paid IEEPA duties). - Refunds processed in 60-90 days per CBP. Total estimated refund pool: $166-175 billion across roughly 53 million shipments and 330,000+ importers. Early volume: 56,497 importers registered in the first 24 hours with $127B in queued claims. The portal has been experiencing intermittent high-volume slowdowns and a "Duplicate Tax ID" error when multiple accounts share the same EIN — if you hit that, contact CBP trade support. Important — NOT refundable through CAPE: - Section 232 (steel, aluminum, copper) - Section 301 (China List tariffs) - Section 122 (current 10% blanket) Only IEEPA duties struck down by SCOTUS qualify for refund.

Supreme Court Strikes Down IEEPA Tariffs (6-3 Ruling)

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) are unconstitutional. Chief Justice Roberts wrote the majority opinion, joined by Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, Gorsuch, Barrett, and Jackson. Justices Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh dissented. Struck down: All IEEPA tariffs including reciprocal/"Liberation Day" tariffs (10-50% on 50+ countries), fentanyl-related tariffs on China (10%), Mexico (25%), and Canada (35%), and the Brazil "Free Speech" tariff (40%). Remains in effect: Section 301 China tariffs (7.5-25%), Section 232 steel (25%) and aluminum (10%) tariffs, and AD/CVD duties. The ruling immediately invalidates approximately $133.5B in annual IEEPA tariffs. Average U.S. import tariff rate drops from approximately 17% to 9%. The government may need to refund over $175B in IEEPA tariffs already collected. Gateway's tariff calculator has been updated to reflect this ruling.
