New CBP CAPE workflow · Built for ecommerce importers

IEEPA Duty Refund Packet Builder for CAPE

Upload your ACE/broker export and optional Shopify orders CSV. CAPEPrep flags refund-ready entries, separates Section 301/232 noise, reconciles customer-collected duties, and exports a clean CAPE declaration checklist.

Works with common entry-summary/broker headers: entry number, HTS, origin, duty paid, entry date, order reference.

Used to match collected duties so you know which refunds need customer pass-through review.

Not legal advice. Use the checklist with your broker, customs counsel, or internal compliance owner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is CAPEPrep a refund calculator?

No. Calculators estimate exposure. CAPEPrep validates line-level CSV data, separates likely IEEPA entries from other tariff programs, and exports a practical CAPE prep checklist.

Does it file with CBP for me?

No. It prepares and validates your packet so your broker, IOR, or compliance owner can complete the CAPE declaration workflow with cleaner data.

What files do I need?

Start with an ACE ES-003 or broker entry-summary CSV. Add a Shopify orders export if you collected duties from customers and need reconciliation flags.

Is my CSV stored?

No permanent file storage is used by this quick tool. The generated CSV is held in your session so you can download it.

Can it identify Section 301 or 232 duties?

It flags common Section 301/232/122 markers and tariff codes so those rows do not contaminate your IEEPA refund packet.
