IEEPA refunds — illustrative, not a personal claim
Paid IEEPA duty on imports of Pharmaceuticals from Netherlands 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 Pharmaceuticals from Netherlands 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 pharmaceuticals from Netherlands 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 pharmaceuticals, confirm the HTS line because exemption lists in note 52/Annex II are not modelled.
Pharmaceuticals imports fall under HTS chapters 30. 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 pharmaceuticals from Netherlands 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 pharmaceuticals importers sourcing from Netherlands: 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.
