Dear Customer,
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has issued formal guidance confirming that duties imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) are no longer in effect for qualifying entries.
Effective 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time on February 24, 2026, CBP will no longer assess or collect IEEPA duties on goods entered for consumption or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption on or after that time.
CBP has confirmed that:
- IEEPA tariff provisions have been deactivated in CBP’s Automated Commercial Environment (ACE)
- Entry summaries for qualifying shipments will reflect $0.00 in IEEPA duties
- This change applies only to IEEPA tariffs and does not affect other duties, including those imposed under Section 301, Section 232, or other applicable tariff programs
Entries prior to February 24, 2026 For goods entered for consumption or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption before February 24, 2026, IEEPA duties were in effect at the time of entry and were properly assessed in accordance with CBP regulations and guidance then in place.
At this time:
- CBP has not issued formal guidance regarding refunds or post-entry remedies for previously paid IEEPA duties
- Entries filed prior to February 24, 2026, remain subject to the duty treatment applicable at the time of entry
We are closely monitoring CBP communications and will provide updates as additional guidance becomes available. Our Customs Services teams are available to support customers with entry processing, compliance guidance, and tariff-related inquiries.
Customers with questions regarding specific shipments, entries, or tariff exposure are encouraged to contact Maersk Customs Services at:compliance.mcsi.nam@maersk.com
