CBP Stops Accepting Warehouse Entries on CAPE IEEPA Refund Declarations as of July 7

CBP updated its guidance for the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE) tool used to process IEEPA duty refunds. Effective July 7, 2026, warehouse entries (Entry Types 21 and 22) submitted on a CAPE Declaration will be rejected with the ENTRY TYPE NOT ALLOWED error, because IEEPA duties are paid at withdrawal rather than at warehouse entry. Warehouse withdrawals (Entry Types 31, 32, 34, and 38) remain acceptable and their approved refunds will be issued upon (re)liquidation of the associated warehouse entry. Warehouse entries accepted on a CAPE Declaration between April 20 and July 6, 2026 without a corresponding withdrawal will not be refunded, and filers must submit a separate CAPE Declaration covering the warehouse withdrawals on which IEEPA duties were paid.
