Peacock Tariff Consulting Launches Final Phase of IEEPA Duty Recovery

Orillia-based Peacock Tariff Consulting (PTC) is positioning its recovery services to capture these complex claims, which require specific legal standing. According to PTC founder Kyle Peacock, the third phase of the CAPE program is uniquely significant because it addresses finally liquidated entries that remained excluded from initial refund cycles. Importers who paid International Emergency Economic Powers Act tariffs must now verify their eligibility, as these specific refunds are restricted to those who previously filed protective actions at the Court of International Trade.

Successfully reclaiming these funds hinges on a rigorous audit of entry portfolios. Ashley Kalyn, head of business development at PTC, describes the process as a blend of precise data management and legal strategy. Importers are encouraged to audit their finally liquidated entries, cross-reference payment records, and review protest statuses immediately. Given the complexity of the filing requirements, PTC is emphasizing a tailored approach to ensure that individual entry portfolios are prepared for the October launch, preventing potential capital from remaining unclaimed due to administrative oversights.
