If you’re the CFO or comptroller of a corporation importing goods into the United States, you’ve just lived through the most chaotic tariff period in modern history in our country, and it has undoubtedly left a bitter taste in your mouth. What we have learned from this debacle and the ongoing refund process is that the Supreme Court, while it has powers to right was done wrong unto you, cannot turn back the hands of time. The imposition of these now unlawful tariffs upended the operational budgets of many corporations, and some even had to file for bankruptcy just because someone decided to go on Truth Social at midnight and start compulsively issuing rant-based orders regarding tariffs and the position of the American trade industry in relation to the world. In addition, just hours after the Supreme Court struck down these tariffs earlier this year, the administration invoked Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 in an effort to impose a 10 percent global tariff that remains uncontested to this day. While the IEEPA refunds are real, they are just but a one-time correction mechanism in a system that has recovered from the blow, and if you’re unable to learn from this and take proactive steps to protect your trading stance as a corporation that imports goods regularly, history will not only repeat itself, but you will also find yourself paying duties under a different statute within months of receiving your refund check.

IEEPA Tariffs – What to do Immediately as an Importer
Here’s what you need to understand about the IEEPA tariffs debacle – you can no longer stand by and watch the government destroy your years of hard work as a corporation that imports goods into the country.
Here are some ways to protect yourself if and when there is yet another tariff wave:
- Diversify your sourcing now, and do not wait: The Section 301 tariffs are being targeted at specific countries on account of their trade practices, especially countries like Japan, China, South Korea and Vietnam. Therefore, if your supply country is a high-tariff country, consider qualifying alternative suppliers in lower-tariff jurisdictions today in order to protect your profit margins
- Build tariff escalation clauses into your supplier contracts: The IEEPA tariffs event showed that tariffs can literally change overnight with no advance notice. Therefore, while drafting supplier contracts, ensure to include provisions that allow you to renegotiate pricing or terminate agreements should the tariffs become unmanageable.
