IEEPA refunds are recoverable. Phase 1 is where the money is moving now.

Importers who paid duties under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) can now file for refunds through CBP's Consolidated Administrative Protest Environment (CAPE). Mallory's M-PACT team has prepared $85 million in Cape Declarations for importers to receive their IEEPA refunds. Phase 1 is open. Bring us your questions.

April Witthoeft, VP of Compliance, answers your IEEPA questions live on June 3 at 12 PM ET. 30 minutes. No slides. Submit your biggest IEEPA challenge when you register and April answers it on air.

total pool we are tracking

Mallory's M-PACT team has been moving IEEPA refunds since CBP opened CAPE filings. The window is open. Phase 1 closes when Phase 1 closes. If you have entries to recover, now is the time to act.

What is actually happening

IEEPA duties, CAPE filings, and why Phase 1 is the priority window.

Four terms to know, then the phase split, then the clock.

IEEPA
International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The statute under which certain import duties were collected and are now refundable.
CAPE
Consolidated Administrative Protest Environment. The CBP system where IEEPA refund declarations are filed.
HTS
Harmonized Tariff Schedule. The classification of your imported goods that determines if IEEPA duties applied.
ACE
Automated Commercial Environment. The CBP system holding your entry records, which a broker needs access to in order to file.
Phase 1 · File now

The bulk of actionable entries today.

Most importers' recoverable duties sit here. If an entry falls in Phase 1, it belongs in a CAPE filing this cycle.

  • Unliquidated entries
  • Entries liquidated less than 80 days
  • Entries not subject to later-phase exclusions
Phase 2 and later · Queue cleanly

Complex cases that wait for a later phase.

These are still recoverable. They just route through a different process and should not be mixed in with Phase 1.

  • Entries on drawback claims
  • Entries liquidated 80+ days
  • Entries under open protest
  • Reconciliation entries
  • AD/CVD entries pending liquidation under 19 U.S.C. § 1504(d)
45day window
CBP is processing Phase 1 declarations on a 45-day window.Earlier declarations clear before later ones. Importers who wait to act on Phase 1 give up their place in line.
