CBP has clarified the resubmission time frame for rejected entry summaries with trade remedy duties, according to a Sept. 11 cargo systems message. The time limit for rejecting antidumping duty and countervailing duty and trade remedy entry summaries is 60 days without supervisory approval and 300 days with supervisory approval, CBP said. Trade remedy summaries include those subject to Section 232, Section 301, Section 201 and International Emergency Economic Powers Act tariffs. The trade community has 10 working days to respond to AD/CVD and/or trade remedy entry summary rejects, the agency said.
Goods subject to International Emergency Economic Powers Act tariffs are eligible for refunds of those tariffs via post-importation claims under USMCA, provided that importers of record can submit a valid, substantiated claim under USMCA within one year of the date of importation, according to a Sept. 10 update to CBP's FAQ webpage on questions related to IEEPA.
