no overpayments or payments to an
erroneous party.
IORs will submit the information
related to their refund request to CBP
through the ACE Portal. Alternatively,
IORs may have their information
submitted to CBP using a licensed
customs broker. Brokers are licensed
through CBP to conduct customs
business on behalf of their IOR clients.
In order to receive a refund through the
CAPE process, the IOR, or their
designated broker, must have an active
and up-to-date ACE Portal account and
supporting profile. If a broker is filing a
CAPE Declaration on an IOR’s behalf,
they must be the ‘‘notify party’’
designated in the appropriate ACE
account. Only ACE account holders will
be able to file a CAPE Declaration
through the CAPE tool.
Most small businesses do not have an
ACE account and instead enlist the
assistance of a licensed customs broker
to conduct business on their behalf.
They will continue to be able, and are
expected, to use their customs brokers
for the IEEPA refunds process and
CAPE.
It is also important to note that the
Federal Government no longer disburses
paper checks, but issues refunds
electronically via Automated
Clearinghouse (ACH). The transition to
electronic refunds is in line with
Executive Order 12247 and was
implemented by CBP via the Interim
Final Rule (IFR) Electronic Refunds (91
FR 21) in January 2026. CBP is currently
holding refunds for filers who do not
have an ACH account on file in ACE.
CBP will continue to do the same for
IEEPA Refunds. As noted in the IFR: ‘‘If
an importer believes that one of the
waiver criteria in 31 CFR part 208
applies and seeks payment of its refund
via a U.S. Treasury check, the importer
must notify CBP’s Revenue Division in
writing at frn-achrefundsupport@
cbp.dhs.gov.’’ CBP does not believe it is
necessary at this time to create a
procedure outside the one established in
the IFR.
The term ‘‘Declaration filer’’ will be
used going forward to cover both IORs
who file their own IEEPA refund
requests or their designated licensed
customs broker.
Previously Approved Emergency
Changes
The following modified information
collection listed below was submitted to
OMB for consideration of approval on
an emergency clearance, with the
justification of an unanticipated event
and reasons to believe following the
normal PRA process is likely to prevent
or disrupt the collection of information

and cause public harm. CBP welcomes
public to comment on these approved
changes.
To submit an IEEPA refund CAPE
declaration, an IOR, or their broker, will
submit a Comma-Separated Values
(CSV) file with a list of entry summary
numbers to the CAPE tool through the
ACE Portal. Depending on the CAPE
Declaration, this file may contain only
a few lines of data or thousands of lines
of data (there is a limit of 9,999 entries
per CAPE Declaration). If the file
submitted is rejected based on the
screening and validation CBP will
conduct prior to accepting a CAPE
Declaration, the Declaration filer will
need to adjust their CSV file and
resubmit. CBP will issue technical
guidance to filers to minimize the
number of rejections/resubmissions.
Although the CIT suspended its order
‘‘to the extent that it directs immediate
compliance,’’ the order indicates that
this suspension was based on the CBP
declaration filed in that case on March
6, 2026, which declared that CBP
anticipates that CAPE would be ready
April 20, 2026, and any delay would
pose risks for CBP in following CIT
orders and for returning those duties
deemed refundable with the end of
IEEPA.
