IEEPA refunds — illustrative, not a personal claim

Paid IEEPA duty on imports of Electronics from Ireland in 2025–early 2026?

The Supreme Court struck down IEEPA reciprocal (and fentanyl/trafficking) tariffs on February 20, 2026. The Importer of Record — or the licensed broker who filed the original entries — can seek that IEEPA layer back through CBP’s CAPE process. This is not a consumer check, and it is not a guaranteed amount.

  • Who can file: the original Importer of Record (or that entry’s filing broker), not the retail customer.
  • Window: IEEPA duties collected from early 2025 through February 24, 2026 (reciprocal rates generally from April 2025; China/Canada/Mexico fentanyl layers started earlier).
  • Not refundable: Section 232 (steel/aluminum/autos), China Section 301, MFN base duty, or the current Section 301 forced-labor tariff / EU 15% deal rate.

Illustrative example only: $50,000 of IEEPA-period imports of Electronics from Ireland at the published 20% IEEPA rate carried about $10,000 of IEEPA duty. That IEEPA layer — plus statutory interest (6–7% compounded daily under 19 CFR 24.36) — is what CAPE can refund. Your actual figure comes from your 7501s, not this example.

Importing electronics from Ireland into the United States carries an effective tariff of about 10% in 2026. Ordinary EU goods pay a 10% net of Column 1 under note 52(k) (headings 9903.05.38–.39, effective July 24, 2026). Where Column 1 is already at least 10%, the additional duty is 0. Autos, qualifying semiconductor articles, and drones stay at 15% in lieu of Section 232. MFN (General) basis - Special-claim/AVE not modelled. exemption lists in note 52/Annex II not modelled.

The ordinary-goods rate is a 10% net of Column 1 (note 52(k)), not the earlier 15% all-in figure. Steel and aluminum remain at Section 232 rates. For electronics, confirm the HTS line because exemption lists in note 52/Annex II are not modelled.

Electronics imports fall under HTS chapters 84-85, 90. On a $10,000 shipment, the ~10% effective rate works out to roughly $1,000 in duty before the Merchandise Processing Fee (0.3464%) and, on ocean freight, the Harbor Maintenance Fee (0.125%). Because the exact duty depends on the specific HTS code and materials, confirm the classification with the HTS Code Finder and run your country and declared value through the tariff calculator on this page for the fully stacked number.

Refund angle: if you imported electronics from Ireland between April 2025 and February 2026, you likely paid the IEEPA reciprocal tariff (about 20%) that the Supreme Court struck down on February 20, 2026 in Learning Resources v. Trump. That layer is now recoverable from the roughly $166 billion CBP refund pool through the CAPE reliquidation process, plus statutory interest near 5%. Section 301 and Section 232 duties were not struck down and are not refundable. The Phase 1 window covers unliquidated entries and those within 80 days of liquidation.

Bottom line for electronics importers sourcing from Ireland: confirm the HTS classification, budget for the 15% EU–US deal ceiling, and — if you paid IEEPA duties in 2025 — check refund eligibility before Phase 1 windows close on a rolling basis.

Your exact duty depends on the specific HTS code — Mexico is currently the lowest-tariff major source at 0%. Tariffs are one input; weigh freight, lead time, and quality too.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the US import tariff on electronics from Ireland in 2026?
About 10% under the EU–US deal's 10% net of Column 1 for ordinary goods (15% only in lieu of Section 232 for autos, qualifying semiconductor articles, and drones) ceiling — goods whose MFN rate is 15% or higher pay MFN only. Section 232 steel and aluminum are separate at 50%.
How much duty would I pay on $10,000 of electronics from Ireland?
Roughly $1,000 at the ~10% effective rate, before the Merchandise Processing Fee (0.3464%) and, on ocean shipments, the Harbor Maintenance Fee (0.125%). Use the calculator on this page for your exact declared value and HTS code.
Can I get a refund on electronics tariffs I paid from Ireland in 2025?
Likely yes on the IEEPA portion. The roughly 20% IEEPA reciprocal tariff paid on Ireland goods before the February 20, 2026 SCOTUS ruling is recoverable through CBP's CAPE process, plus ~5% interest. Section 301 and Section 232 layers are not refundable.
Is it cheaper to import electronics from Ireland or from China?
Generally yes. Ireland at about 10% avoids China's Section 301 duties (25% on electronics), so it typically undercuts Chinese origin — though freight, lead time, and quality still matter. The full ranked comparison is on this page.
