Am I owed a tariff refund?

If you paid a tariff, duty, or courier import fee on something you bought in 2025 or 2026, you may be owed money back — some of those tariffs were ruled unlawful and CBP is issuing refunds. Take the 60-second check below to find out where you stand.

Question 1 of 4

Since early 2025, have you bought goods that shipped to you from another country?

Includes ordering from an overseas seller, or a US site that ships direct from abroad.

Common questions

Can a regular consumer get a tariff refund?

Sometimes. If you paid an import charge, duty, or courier brokerage fee on a purchase during a period when the underlying tariff was later ruled unlawful, that money may be recoverable. Whether you personally can claim it depends on who was listed as the importer of record and the type of charge — which is exactly what a free eligibility review sorts out.

Why are tariff refunds happening in 2026?

In February 2026 the Supreme Court struck down the IEEPA tariffs, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) began issuing refunds of those duties through its CAPE program. That opened the door for many importers — and in some cases consumers who bore the cost — to recover what they paid.

I got a surprise 'import fee' from UPS, FedEx, or DHL. Is that refundable?

Possibly. Couriers often charge duties plus a brokerage fee at delivery. If part of that was an unlawful tariff, it may be recoverable, though courier brokerage fees themselves usually are not. Keep your receipts and delivery invoices — they're the proof you'll need.

How much can I get back?

It depends entirely on what you paid and on the specifics of your imports. We don't quote a number up front — anyone who guarantees a figure before reviewing your details isn't being straight with you. The check tells you whether it's worth pursuing; the free review tells you how much.

What does it cost to find out?

Nothing. The eligibility check and the follow-up review are free. If there's no refund worth pursuing, we'll tell you.
