#SEMANews SEMA & PRI HOSTING TARIFF TALKS Refunds? Our friends on the automotive aftermarket side — SEMA and PRI — are co-hosting a free webinar on March 19 that will examine the rapidly evolving situation surrounding refunds for tariffs collected by the U.S. government under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The session will provide a timely overview of what the U.S. Supreme Court's order means for importers and businesses that have paid IEEPA tariffs. The webinar is presented by the Small Business Legislative Council, of which SEMA is a member. It comes after significant legal developments following the Supreme Court's ruling on President Trump's IEEPA tariffs, as well as the recent U.S. Court of International Trade order that the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) must begin automatically refunding IEEPA duties. During the webinar, legal experts from Barnes & Thornburg LLP will discuss how refunds may be processed for unliquidated entries and for entries whose liquidation status is "not final," an area where significant uncertainty remains. The presenters will address practical questions businesses are asking right now, including how companies can determine liquidation status and what mechanisms CBP plans to use to issue refunds. The webinar will also examine the government's expected appeal and how ongoing litigation and administrative actions could impact refunds tied to entries from early 2025. Rather than a technical deep dive into tariff law, the program is designed to give companies a practical, business-focused overview of the refund process and the key issues that could affect recovery in the months ahead.
