92% of U.S. Importers Are Missing the IEEPA Refund Window — The Tariff Bureau LLC and TariffIQ™

ATLANTA - EntSun -- — The Tariff Bureau LLC, an Atlanta-based trade advisory firm, today announced the official launch of its AI-powered IEEPA tariff refund recovery and trade intelligence services under the TariffIQ™ brand.

The firm is purpose-built to help U.S. importers, commercial lenders, and foreign manufacturers operating under Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) terms identify and recover overpaid duties through the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) CAPE portal — before the June 7, 2026 appeal deadline closes.

A CRITICAL WINDOW — AND AN URGENT DEADLINE

The Learning Resources Inc. v. Trump Supreme Court ruling opened an estimated $127–$175 billion in IEEPA tariff refund claims through the CBP CAPE portal. Despite this, 92% of eligible importers have not enrolled. The barriers are real: the refund process spans ACE portal submissions, CBP protest procedures, Form 4811 declarations, HTS classification review, and multi-party coordination. Most importers simply do not have the analytical infrastructure to identify their exposure, size their potential recovery, and move quickly enough to act before the deadline. The Tariff Bureau was founded to close that gap.

INTRODUCING TARIFFIQ™ — AI-POWERED TRADE INTELLIGENCE

TariffIQ™ is The Tariff Bureau's proprietary AI trade intelligence platform built to analyze shipment data, HTS classification records, and entry documentation at a speed and depth that traditional advisory approaches cannot match.

TariffIQ™ delivers: — Real-time IEEPA tariff monitoring and regulatory change tracking — AI-assisted HTS classification review and duty rate validation — CBP CAPE portal refund eligibility screening and claim sizing — Entry-level data analysis to quantify recoverable overpayments — Rerouting and supply chain restructuring scenario modeling — Lender collateral valuation support for tariff-impacted inventory portfolios

THE ENFORCEMENT RISK MOST IMPORTERS ARE MISSING

Beyond the refund opportunity, importers face a serious compliance risk. The DOJ–DHS Trade Fraud Task Force, launched in August 2025, uses AI-powered machine learning to detect classification mismatches and valuation anomalies across 53 million annual shipments. Every CAPE Declaration requires a legal certification — and importers who certify entries containing misclassified goods face False Claims Act exposure. Whistleblower qui tam relators receive up to 30% of government recovery. The largest customs FCA settlement in history totaled $54.4 million. For importers with $250,000 or more in IEEPA duty exposure, a pre-submission Claim Audit & Optimization is essential risk management.

WHO WE SERVE

U.S. Importers: Mid-market and enterprise importers across manufacturing, retail, technology, industrial goods, and consumer products sectors who have paid IEEPA tariffs on qualifying merchandise and may be entitled to CBP CAPE refunds.

Commercial Lenders and Collateral Valuators: Banks, asset-based lenders, and private credit firms that need independent assessments of tariff-driven impairment in importer inventory, receivables, and collateral portfolios.
