IEEPA Tariff Refund Deadline Calculator

Every IEEPA-tariffed shipment has its own set of deadlines, and missing any one of them can permanently close off that refund path. The protest window for entries that liquidated in September 2025 is closing in March 2026. Entries that liquidated in October 2025 have deadlines in April. This IEEPA refund deadline calculator takes the guesswork out of those dates entirely. Enter one or more import dates and the calculator returns the exact Post Summary Correction (PSC) cutoff, expected liquidation date, protest window close, and final liquidation date for each entry — along with a plain-terms recommendation for what action to take right now. You can analyze up to 50 entries at once and print or save the results as a PDF to share with your customs broker or finance team.

IEEPA Tariff Refunds — Deadline Calculator

Know your exact refund deadlines

Enter one or more import dates to see the key deadlines for each entry: when you can still amend the entry before CBP closes it, when CBP is expected to finalize the entry through liquidation, when the formal protest window closes, and what action to take right now. You can enter up to 50 dates at once and print or save the results.

Enter your import dates

Use the date CBP released your goods at the U.S. port — not the ship date or invoice date. Add a reference label for each entry to make results easier to read. Your customs broker can provide these dates if needed.

How to find your import date: This is the CBP release date shown on your Entry Summary (CBP Form 7501). If you do not have this, ask your customs broker to pull an ACE entry report for all shipments from February 2025 through February 2026. All deadlines assume the standard 314-day liquidation cycle — always confirm actual dates in ACE.

All deadlines are calculated based on the standard 314-day CBP liquidation cycle. Actual liquidation dates may differ — always verify in ACE. For informational purposes only. Not legal or financial advice. For guidance specific to your entries, contact our team directly.
