TraxRecovery · Tariff agent · 30% of what lands, nothing otherwise

The Supreme Court struck down most IEEPA tariffs. The duty you paid may be refundable, but only if someone files.

On Feb 20, 2026, the Supreme Court struck down most IEEPA tariffs. CBP refunds that duty, with interest, through CAPE in the ACE Portal, but only when the importer or its broker files. TraxRecovery's agent reads your broker's entry summary report and finds the IEEPA duty on each entry, so your broker can claim it.

Tariff agent

Reading Chapter 99 lines

What the tariff agent checks

Every entry, every line

IEEPA Chapter 99 lines

Lines under 9903.01 and 9903.02 on the entry summary, or an IEEPA column in your broker's report, read entry by entry.

Entry dates in range

Only entries dated Feb 1, 2025 to Feb 19, 2026 count. Entries outside that range are left out.

Unlabeled additional duty

A line that says only "Additional Duty" is flagged for your broker to confirm before it goes on the list.

Liquidated entries

Each liquidated entry is checked against the 80-day CAPE window. Past the window, it is marked for a protest.

No double counting

The same dollars are never counted for both duty drawback and an IEEPA refund.

By hand

Go through your broker's entry summaries one by one, find the 9903.01 and 9903.02 lines, check each entry date, and list the entry numbers. CBP wants a CSV with one "Entry Number" column.

The window

Entry dates Feb 1, 2025 to Feb 19, 2026. Liquidated entries: within 80 days of liquidation for CAPE. After that, a protest.

Who files

Your licensed customs broker, or you in your own ACE account. TraxRecovery does not file with CBP and is not a customs broker.

Interest

CBP adds interest to the IEEPA duty it refunds.

What it looks like

An HVAC parts distributor with 3 entries in the date range. IEEPA duty found: $2,500 + $1,800 + $950 = $5,250. The packet, with the Entry Number CSV, goes to its broker to file in CAPE.

Illustrative example, not a real customer.

How it works

Automatic where it can be, one click from you where it must be

  1. 1. Give the agent its files

    Ask your customs broker for an entry summary report from Feb 2025 on. PDF or CSV. The tariff agent reads every line into the same structure.

  2. 2. It finds and prepares

    The agent finds the IEEPA duty on each entry, flags lines to confirm, checks liquidation windows, and builds the Entry Number CSV. Each finding records the evidence and the amount.

  3. 3. Your broker files

    The packet goes to your licensed broker, who files in CAPE or protests. When the refund lands, it is matched, and you pay 30% of what landed, on the 1st.

Drop one entry report. No account.

The free audit reads one file in about 30 seconds: PDF, CSV or a photo. Nothing is stored.

Questions

Do you file with CBP?

No. TraxRecovery does not file with CBP and is not a customs broker. Your licensed customs broker files, or you file in your own ACE account. We prepare the entry list and the packet.

Which entries may be refundable?

Entries with IEEPA duty, shown as Chapter 99 lines 9903.01 or 9903.02 or as an IEEPA column, with entry dates from Feb 1, 2025 to Feb 19, 2026.

What if my entries already liquidated?

CAPE takes liquidated entries within 80 days of liquidation. After that, the path is a protest, which your broker files.

What does CBP need for a CAPE filing?

A CSV file with one column named Entry Number, listing each entry. The agent builds that list for your broker.

Is interest included?

Yes. CBP adds interest to IEEPA duty it refunds. You do not calculate it.

Can the same duty count for drawback and an IEEPA refund?

No. The agent never counts the same dollars twice. Duty already claimed in drawback is left out of the IEEPA list, and the reverse.
