New York’s Role in U.S. Import Trade
The Supreme Court’s February 20, 2026 ruling in Learning Resources v. Trump held that IEEPA tariffs were unlawful, opening $166 billion in refunds across 53 million entry summaries and 330,000 importers of record. New York and Northeast importers are among those eligible. CBP’s CAPE system is actively processing refunds through Phase 1 and Phase 2. Phase 3, covering finally liquidated entries, was ordered July 17, 2026, but the general portal function remains undeployed, with no new date given as CBP continues building additional system validations.
New York's garment district and fashion importers paid significant IEEPA duties on apparel, textiles, and accessories from China, Vietnam, and Cambodia — high-volume entries with strong refund potential.
New York's dense retail sector — from department stores to e-commerce distribution — imports consumer electronics, home goods, and general merchandise from IEEPA-affected origins.
New York's luxury goods importers, including jewelry, leather goods, and accessories, faced significant IEEPA exposure on high-value entries from Europe and Asia.
New York's large healthcare and pharmaceutical sector imports medical devices, active ingredients, and supplies from IEEPA-affected origins with significant duty exposure.
Which Phase Covers Your Entries?
CBP is processing IEEPA refunds in three phases. Your eligibility depends on your entry liquidation status and whether a Type 09 reconciliation entry has been filed.
Unliquidated & Recent Entries
Entries not yet liquidated, or liquidated within 80 days of your CAPE Declaration filing date. Open since April 20, 2026. No Type 09 restriction.
Reconciliation Entries
Entry Types 01, 02, 06 flagged for reconciliation with no Type 09 filed. Open since June 29, 2026. File CAPE Declaration before Type 09 — sequence matters.
Finally Liquidated Entries
Entries liquidated more than 80 days ago. The July 17, 2026 order is case-linked and limited to importers who already filed individual CIT lawsuits — roughly ~3,700 companies. CBP's most recent report confirms the general portal function is still not live, with no new date given.

With CAPE Phase 3 ordered but its general portal function still not deployed, and Section 122 having expired July 24 (replaced same-day by new Section 301 forced-labor tariffs of 10–12.5% on 60 countries), the tariff landscape continues shifting rapidly. Importers who act now capture more of the statutory interest accruing on their refund. The earlier you file, the higher your queue position and the more interest you collect.
