Recent changes to certain U.S. import tariffs have created refund opportunities for manufacturers, distributors, and retailers with global supply chains. As U.S. Customs and Border Protection processes refund claims, many companies may have access to significant cash inflows.
This session will explore the process for pursuing tariff refunds and the financial, tax, and operational implications of receiving them. We’ll discuss how to evaluate eligibility, manage documentation requirements, and coordinate across internal stakeholders to support the claims process. In addition, we’ll examine the impact of tariff refunds on taxable income, cost of goods sold (COGS), asset basis, and financial reporting across multiple periods. Finally, we’ll highlight planning considerations organizations can implement to help mitigate future tariff costs.
