What the ES-003 report actually contains

ES-003 is CBP's Entry Summary Details report, exportable from the ACE Secure Data Portal. For each entry, it shows the HTS classification codes, duty amounts paid, entry date, liquidation status and date, and importer of record information — everything needed to identify which of your entries fall under IEEPA's Chapter 99 codes (9903.01 and 9903.02) and where each one stands in the refund process.

Why this one report matters so much: Whether you're checking Post-Summary Correction eligibility, your 180-day protest deadline, CAPE Phase eligibility, or evaluating a claim sale offer, every one of those paths starts by reading this same report.

How to get your ES-003, step by step

Confirm who has ACE Portal access

Access to the ACE Secure Data Portal typically belongs to your customs broker or whoever files your entries. If you're the importer of record but don't have direct ACE access yourself, your broker can usually export this in minutes.

Request the ES-003 report specifically

Ask your broker by name for the "ES-003 Entry Summary Details" export — this is the specific report format used across the industry for IEEPA refund analysis, not a general entry list.

Set the right date range

Pull entries from February 4, 2025 forward (the start of the IEEPA fentanyl tariff period) through February 2026, to capture the full window during which IEEPA duties applied.

Check for Chapter 99 codes

Once you have the export, filter for HTS headings 9903.01 and 9903.02 — these are the specific codes tied to IEEPA duties, distinct from Section 301 or Section 232 tariffs which are unaffected by the Supreme Court ruling.

Frequently asked questions

What if I don't have a customs broker anymore, or they won't respond?

If you were the importer of record, you may be able to request ACE Portal access directly through CBP, or work with a new broker to pull historical entry data. We can help you figure out the right path depending on your situation.

Is ES-003 the only report I need?

For most IEEPA refund purposes, yes — it's the standard starting document across the industry. Depending on your situation, you may also need proof-of-payment records or invoices to support a protest or CIT filing.

How do I know which entries are IEEPA-affected vs. other tariffs?

Look for HTS Chapter 99 codes 9903.01 and 9903.02 specifically. Section 301 tariffs on China, Section 232 tariffs on steel/aluminum/autos, and antidumping/countervailing duties use different codes and were not affected by the Supreme Court's IEEPA ruling.

Can The Tariff Bureau pull this report for me?

We don't have direct ACE Portal access on your behalf — that access belongs to the importer of record or their broker. Once you have your ES-003 export, we help you read it and identify your recovery options.
