How to Save on Tariffs in 2025: Duty Drawback, Tariff Engineering, and Other Smart Import Strategies

Infographic showing 6 key tariff-saving strategies for 2025: duty drawback refunds, tariff engineering, First Sale Rule, Foreign Trade Zones, HTS optimization, and Chapter 98 provisions for importers and exporters

If your business is feeling the squeeze from rising tariffs, you're not alone. In 2025, U.S. trade policy is once again front and center, with escalating duties on Chinese EVs, retaliatory tariffs from the EU, and growing uncertainty around digital services taxes. For importers, these shifting rules aren't just theoretical—they're already hitting the bottom line. Margins are tighter. Compliance is trickier. And with election-year politics fueling protectionist sentiment on both sides of the aisle, it's unlikely things will stabilize anytime soon.

In this environment, tariff-saving strategies aren't just nice to have—they're essential. The smartest importers in 2025 aren't just cutting costs; they're claiming refunds, restructuring supply chains, and proactively reducing duty exposure before goods even hit the port. Whether you're dealing with newly reinstated Section 301 tariffs, complex multi-tiered transactions, or simply trying to reclaim value from unused merchandise, there are now more tools than ever to reduce your tariff burden—legally and effectively.

From duty drawback programs governed by 19 CFR 190, to creative tariff engineering tactics and the often-overlooked First Sale Rule, today's importers have a range of options to mitigate risk and unlock refund potential. But navigating these opportunities requires more than gut instinct. It demands data, automation, and a sharp understanding of how Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is enforcing claims in the ACE era.

This guide will walk you through the most effective tariff mitigation strategies in 2025. We'll break down how duty drawback works under the TFTEA framework, how tariff engineering is being used to reclassify goods for legitimate savings, and how importers are using documentation-based strategies like the First Sale Rule to lower dutiable value. We'll also explore emerging best practices for staying compliant while maximizing refund value—so you can stop overpaying and start reclaiming what's yours.

Because in 2025, the difference between surviving and thriving often comes down to one thing: how well you understand your duty recovery options.

Duty drawback 101—the cornerstone of tariff refunds

In a year defined by rising tariffs and tightening margins, duty drawback remains the most powerful tool importers have to recover costs. With refund potential as high as 99% of duties, taxes, and fees paid on imported goods, it's no wonder more companies are making drawback a core part of their tariff mitigation strategy in 2025. But while the concept is straightforward, executing a successful drawback claim requires both regulatory knowledge and airtight data discipline.

What is duty drawback and why does it matter in 2025?

Duty drawback is a long-standing U.S. Customs program that allows companies to reclaim duties paid on goods that are later exported, destroyed, or used in manufacturing exported products. It's governed by 19 CFR Part 190, modernized under the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act (TFTEA) to streamline the process and expand eligibility.

As tariffs spike on high-volume categories like electronics, EV parts, and apparel, drawback has become a high-impact strategy for reclaiming costs without changing sourcing or pricing. For importers dealing with Section 301, 201, or 232 tariffs, drawback often means the difference between breaking even and bleeding margin.

For a more detailed breakdown of what duty drawback is, see our other blog post here.

The main types of duty drawback

Under TFTEA, drawback is now categorized into a few primary types:

Unused Merchandise Drawback: For goods that are imported and then either exported in essentially the same condition or destroyed under U.S. Customs supervision.

Manufacturing Drawback: For goods that are imported, used to produce a finished item, and then exported.

Rejected Merchandise Drawback: For goods that are returned or destroyed due to defect, non-conformance, or refusal by the buyer.

Each type comes with its own requirements for documentation and matching exports to imports, but all can be submitted through a single unified framework under ACE.

What changed under TFTEA and 19 CFR 190

The passage of TFTEA was a turning point. Before 2016, drawback claims were fragmented across multiple regulatory parts. TFTEA consolidated the rules into 19 CFR Part 190, introduced a standardized claim format, and extended the timeline to file from three to five years from the import date.

But TFTEA also raised the bar. Claims now require stricter recordkeeping and electronic submission through ACE, Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) digital platform. Importers need to tie every refund request to a validated import-export pair, backed by clean documentation and up-to-date sourcing records.

How to qualify—and common mistakes to avoid

Eligibility for duty drawback hinges on two factors: whether you paid duties on eligible imports, and whether those goods were subsequently exported, destroyed, or transformed into exported products. Companies must maintain detailed documentation, including commercial invoices, bills of lading, and CBP entry records, and keep those records organized for five years in case of audit.

Many businesses leave money on the table by assuming they aren't eligible—or by working with brokers who lack ACE access or claim optimization tools. Common pitfalls include:

  • Missing export documentation
  • Poor record matching between import and export
  • Filing claims too late (past the 5-year window)
  • Relying on manual processes that trigger CBP rejections

This is why working with a professional drawback filer matters. It's not just about filing paperwork—it's about proving eligibility under scrutiny.

Where technology makes the difference

Filing drawback through traditional brokers often means manual entry, limited visibility, and delayed claims. In contrast, platforms that integrate directly with ACE and automate claim matching can streamline the process, ensure accuracy, and surface refunds a human might miss.

Pax AI's system, for instance, uses machine learning to find overlooked claims, optimize matching logic, and track submissions in real-time—maximizing both speed and refund value. Our clients often discover six-figure savings they didn't know they were eligible for.

Why duty drawback should be a priority in 2025

With tariffs increasing across key categories—and retaliatory duties from trading partners growing more complex—duty drawback offers a way to recover sunk costs without altering your sourcing strategy. It's one of the few tools that rewards good documentation and proactive compliance with real, recurring cash.

In 2025, CBP audits are becoming more automated, more frequent, and more data-driven. Filing correctly and consistently isn't just best practice—it's a form of risk management. Duty drawback isn't a loophole. It's your legal right to recover what's yours.

Tariff engineering and post-entry optimization

If you've ever tried to reduce duty costs by modifying your products before they hit U.S. shores, you've already used one of the oldest tools in the trade compliance playbook: tariff engineering. And for many companies, it works. In industries like footwear, apparel, auto parts, and electronics, tariff engineering can meaningfully reduce landed costs—sometimes by double-digit percentages.

But in 2025, tariff engineering alone isn't enough. With tariffs climbing across everything from EV batteries to consumer electronics, companies are increasingly looking beyond pre-entry classification strategies and toward post-entry optimization—especially through smarter use of duty drawback. In many cases, that's where the largest, most scalable savings opportunities live.

What is tariff engineering?

Tariff engineering is the practice of modifying a product before it enters the U.S. in order to qualify for a more favorable Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) classification. It's completely legal—as long as the product's form at the time of entry truthfully reflects its classification. These modifications can involve physical changes, disassembly, or component swaps, all aimed at reducing the duty owed.

Common examples include:

  • Footwear companies adding decorative features to shoes to shift into a lower-duty category.
  • Pasta manufacturers par-cooking noodles so they qualify as "prepared foods" instead of raw.
  • Furniture or appliance brands shipping disassembled kits to avoid higher finished goods duties.

When done right, tariff engineering can reduce duty rates from 10–25% down to just a few percentage points—or even zero.

Why engineering alone leaves refunds on the table

The limitation with tariff engineering is structural: it only applies before goods are entered. Once a shipment has cleared customs, that opportunity closes. And for companies importing complex goods, blended materials, or high-variability SKUs, reconfiguring a product just to qualify for a different HTS code isn't always feasible—or worth the operational lift.

That's where duty drawback comes in. Unlike tariff engineering, drawback happens after import. It allows companies to recover duties already paid on goods that are exported, destroyed, or used in exported manufacturing. When paired with strong recordkeeping and smart strategy, drawback can offer refund rates of up to 99%—no product redesign required.

And while many companies already claim drawback, most aren't getting back nearly as much as they could. That's because filing a claim is easy. Optimizing one is hard.

The hidden cost of non-optimized refunds

Here's the reality: most brokers match drawback claims using simple logic—first-in, first-out sequencing, HTS code groupings, and surface-level compliance checks. That approach is fine for filing—but it often fails to maximize refund value.

Take substitution drawback (J2), for example. Refunds are calculated based on the lower of the import or export value. So if your broker matches a $100 export to a $60 import, you're only refunded on $60—even if a better match existed in your data. Over thousands of shipments, those mismatches quietly add up to serious money left behind.

By contrast, companies that layer optimization on top of engineering—or use it as their primary strategy when engineering isn't possible—are unlocking a second, often larger tier of duty savings. They're not just saving at entry. They're recovering value at exit, too. For a full breakdown of how this works at Pax, see our blog post on advanced strategies to maximize your refund.

How optimization complements tariff engineering

These strategies aren't mutually exclusive. In fact, they work best in tandem. Tariff engineering is a great way to reduce costs on predictable, high-volume products. But refund optimization can capture savings across everything else—including blended inventory, export rejects, and dynamic product lines that don't lend themselves to pre-entry manipulation.

If you're already investing in tariff engineering, there's a good chance your refund strategy deserves the same level of attention. And if engineering isn't viable for your product or market, optimizing your drawback claims may be the most impactful lever available.

The first sale rule

Not all duty savings come from recovering money after the fact. Some start with how you structure your supply chain in the first place. That's where the First Sale Rule comes in—a little-known but completely legal provision that allows importers to reduce the declared customs value of their goods by declaring the price of an earlier sale in the transaction chain.

If your company sources products through a multi-tiered structure—for example, a factory in Vietnam sells to a Hong Kong trading company, which then sells to your U.S. importer—the First Sale Rule might let you pay duty based on the factory price, not the marked-up invoice. And depending on your margins and volume, that difference could mean 10–20% in duty savings on every shipment.

How the first sale rule works

The First Sale Rule allows importers to declare the value of goods based on the first sale for export to the United States—rather than the last sale to the U.S.-based buyer. In a multi-tiered transaction, that often means choosing the lower price charged by the original manufacturer, rather than the intermediary reseller or trading house.

To qualify, the importer must prove that the first sale was a legitimate, arm's-length transaction, and that the goods were clearly destined for the U.S. at the time of that sale. That means thorough documentation is key—purchase orders, invoices, payment records, shipping instructions, and contractual language all matter.

If accepted by Customs, this lower declared value reduces the duty owed at the time of entry—without requiring any product changes, reclassification, or refund claims down the line.

Who can use it—and when it makes a difference

The First Sale Rule is most relevant to importers that buy through intermediaries, resellers, or global sourcing offices. It's especially common in sectors like apparel, electronics, automotive parts, and general merchandise—industries where goods often pass through several hands before landing in the U.S.

The more layers between the factory and the importer, the more potential markup—and the more valuable the First Sale Rule becomes. For high-volume SKUs with consistent manufacturing partners, it can generate steady per-shipment savings that add up quickly.

And unlike some mitigation strategies, the First Sale Rule is repeatable. Once your documentation is in place and accepted by CBP, you can continue to apply it across future entries with confidence.

Challenges and compliance considerations

While powerful, the First Sale Rule isn't a free pass. CBP scrutiny has increased in recent years, and importers need to be ready to prove the legitimacy of the first sale with clear, auditable documentation. Common pitfalls include vague or incomplete invoices, missing shipping terms, or intermediary contracts that blur the line between buyer and agent.

Additionally, Customs wants to see that the first sale was not influenced by the U.S. buyer—meaning price negotiations, design specs, and production instructions can't come exclusively from the importer. If the U.S. buyer effectively controls the transaction, CBP may consider the intermediary sale the true dutiable transaction.

This is why many companies choose to obtain a binding ruling from CBP to confirm First Sale eligibility upfront—especially if they plan to rely on it long-term.

How it fits into a broader duty strategy

Like tariff engineering, the First Sale Rule reduces your duties before they're paid. But unlike engineering, it doesn't require changing the product itself—it simply changes the valuation method. And unlike drawback, it doesn't rely on exports. That makes it a useful tool for importers with large domestic sales volumes who still want to reduce dutiable costs at the front end.

That said, First Sale and drawback can absolutely work together. In fact, they often do. By reducing duties at entry and optimizing refunds after export, companies can build a layered mitigation strategy that protects margin from both directions.

And because drawback refunds are calculated based on the duties you actually paid at entry, using First Sale can also impact the starting point for refund calculations—making the structure of your supply chain just as important as how you claim on the back end.

Why it's often overlooked

The First Sale Rule has been on the books for decades, but it remains underutilized—largely because it requires cross-functional coordination. Procurement teams, legal departments, compliance officers, and logistics providers all need to be aligned. For many companies, it falls into the "too complicated" bucket, despite being a legitimate and often lucrative path to savings.

But for importers with stable sourcing relationships and the documentation to back it up, First Sale can be a quietly powerful tool. It doesn't make headlines. But it does make a real difference.

Other effective mitigation strategies

Duty drawback, the First Sale Rule, and tariff engineering may get most of the attention—but they're not the only tools available to companies trying to control landed costs. In today's global trade environment, where tariffs fluctuate and supply chains shift constantly, the most resilient importers are deploying a combination of mitigation strategies across the entire sourcing and logistics lifecycle.

These strategies don't just work in isolation. When combined, they form a layered defense against margin erosion—and create flexibility for companies navigating uncertainty.

Inverted duty structures and domestic manufacturing credits

In some cases, companies face an inverted duty structure—where the raw materials they import are taxed at a higher rate than the finished product they manufacture and sell. That makes local manufacturing not just patriotic, but financially advantageous.

Some importers take advantage of this by shifting final assembly to the U.S., then claiming drawback on the high-duty inputs exported as part of a finished product. Others invest in qualifying for domestic manufacturing incentives or seek out suppliers that can help rebalance their cost structure.

When paired with manufacturing drawback (or mixed provision claims that include both manufacturing and unused exports), this approach can both reduce duties paid and increase refunds recovered.

Inventory planning: frontloading, staging, and tariff timing

Timing can be a tariff strategy in itself. When companies anticipate new duties or know existing ones are set to expire, they often frontload inventory—bringing goods in early to avoid future rate increases. This tactic was widely used in 2024 and 2025 ahead of anticipated tariff increases.

But frontloading isn't without risk. Overstocked inventory ties up cash and warehouse space, and unexpected demand shifts can lead to markdowns or write-offs. The most effective importers combine tariff forecasting with inventory staging strategies, pulling from bonded warehouses or foreign trade zones (FTZs) only when needed. This keeps goods "off the books" from a duty standpoint until timing is right.

Supplier and HTS code review

Even outside of formal engineering changes, many companies find savings simply by reviewing the HTS classifications their brokers have been using. Often, codes were selected years ago and haven't been revisited—even if the product has changed.

In some cases, the same item might qualify for multiple tariff codes, depending on how it's packaged, marketed, or presented. A fresh review of classifications, ideally backed by binding rulings or legal opinion letters, can uncover lower-duty options that are entirely compliant.

On the supplier side, companies are increasingly working with vendors who understand tariff optimization—and who can provide documentation to support strategies like First Sale, FTA eligibility, or substitution drawback. In an era of automated enforcement, a supply chain that's "compliance-ready" is becoming a competitive advantage in itself.

Using foreign trade zones or bonded warehouses

Foreign Trade Zones (FTZs) and bonded warehouses are designated spaces—usually near ports or airports—where imported goods can be stored, processed, or even manufactured without immediately triggering customs duties. These zones are legally considered "outside" U.S. customs territory for duty purposes, which means you don't have to pay import taxes until the goods leave the zone and officially enter the U.S. market.

This setup gives importers more control over when and whether duties are paid. If the goods are later re-exported instead of sold domestically, no duties are owed at all. And if the product changes while in the zone—say it's assembled into a different item or repackaged—you may be able to declare the new product at a lower duty rate upon entry.

Bonded warehouses function similarly, but are generally used for longer-term storage. Goods can remain in a bonded warehouse for up to five years without duties being assessed, giving companies more flexibility to manage timing, cash flow, or regulatory uncertainty.

For importers dealing with unpredictable demand, seasonality, or re-export operations, FTZs and bonded warehouses can be a powerful way to defer, reduce, or completely avoid duties—all while staying fully compliant with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations.

Leveraging Chapter 98 to reduce duties on returned or assembled goods

Chapter 98 of the U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule provides special duty exemptions for certain types of imports—especially when the goods involve U.S. components, returns, or re-imports. These provisions can be particularly valuable for companies that manufacture across borders or operate circular supply chains.

One of the most commonly used entries under Chapter 98 is HTS 9801, which allows goods that were originally exported from the U.S. to return duty-free—even if they've passed through or been used in other countries. For example, if you export diagnostic equipment for international servicing and then re-import it, you can use 9801 to avoid paying duty again on the same product.

Another valuable provision is HTS 9802, which applies when a product is assembled abroad using U.S.-origin components. In that case, importers can deduct the value of those U.S. parts from the total declared customs value—meaning duties are only assessed on the foreign value-added portion.

Chapter 98 isn't a fit for every importer, but when used correctly, it can generate significant duty savings on returned goods, repairs, or cross-border manufacturing programs. Like all mitigation tools, it requires strong documentation and advance planning—but the payoff can be substantial.

Technology and data-driven compliance

None of these strategies work without clean, organized data. That's why more companies are investing in systems that integrate with ACE, centralize entry records, and track eligibility across FTAs, Chapter 98, and drawback. When customs enforcement becomes algorithmic, documentation gaps don't just delay refunds—they become financial liabilities.

Importers that build compliance infrastructure now are better positioned to pivot quickly when new duties hit, new exemptions emerge, or a key supplier changes their practices.

Stacking strategies means stronger margins

There's no single answer to duty savings in 2025. Some companies benefit most from drawback. Others rely on FTAs or First Sale. And for many, the real advantage comes from stacking strategies together—claiming drawback on exports, using First Sale at entry, optimizing classifications, and staging goods in FTZs until timing is right.

The more options a company builds into its supply chain, the more it can adapt to an uncertain trade environment—and the more margin it protects when tariffs move fast.

Compliance, ACE, and the future of CBP enforcement

Duty savings aren't just about knowing the rules—they're about proving you followed them. In 2025, as tariffs expand and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) becomes increasingly data-driven, compliance is no longer just a back-office concern—it's a core part of risk management.

Whether you're filing drawback, declaring under the First Sale Rule, or leveraging Chapter 98, your ability to stay compliant—and to prove it in an audit—is what determines whether your savings stick.

The central role of ACE in modern trade compliance

If you're importing into the U.S., you're already using ACE—the Automated Commercial Environment that CBP uses to process entries, monitor filings, and manage all electronic data around import/export activity. But using ACE passively—just to transmit documents—is no longer enough.

For strategies like duty drawback under 19 CFR 190, ACE is the required channel for filing. But it's also where CBP pulls audit triggers, cross-checks claims against entry data, and identifies inconsistencies in real time. That means your entry records, export documents, and claim data must be clean, complete, and perfectly aligned across systems.

Companies that rely on outdated software, siloed broker records, or inconsistent customs documentation run a higher risk of claim denials—or worse, audits that claw back previously approved refunds.

Why CBP audits are getting smarter (and stricter)

CBP enforcement in 2025 doesn't look like it did five years ago. Today's audits are increasingly automated and algorithmic. Rather than random site visits or manual reviews, CBP now flags filings based on pattern recognition, valuation anomalies, and data inconsistencies across ACE.

That means the systems you use—and the data you submit—determine your audit risk. If your duty drawback filings rely on manual spreadsheets, or your First Sale declarations aren't backed by arm's-length contracts and clearly documented pricing, those vulnerabilities will surface.

CBP isn't just checking whether you filed the right forms. It's checking whether the logic behind your claim is defensible, consistent, and fully supported by digital records.

Why documentation discipline matters more than ever

Most compliance failures don't happen because a company broke the law. They happen because they couldn't prove they followed it.

Whether you're filing under substitution drawback (J2), leveraging Chapter 98, or using FTZs, you need to be able to tie every refund, exemption, or valuation claim to source documents. That includes commercial invoices, bills of lading, entry summaries, supplier declarations, manufacturing records, and any documentation that supports your classification or country-of-origin claims.

CBP's five-year recordkeeping requirement under 19 CFR 190 means that claims filed today can be audited years later—long after your staff, systems, or brokers have changed. If your data isn't centralized and backed up, you risk losing defensibility even on previously approved entries.

How leading importers are preparing for the future

The most forward-looking importers aren't just chasing refunds—they're building compliance programs designed to withstand scrutiny. That includes:

  • Centralizing customs data and entry records
  • Integrating filing systems with ACE for real-time validation
  • Maintaining audit trails for every provision used (First Sale, FTZ, drawback, etc.)
  • Pre-clearing complex strategies through binding rulings or compliance opinions
  • Auditing their own brokers and filing partners for consistency and accuracy

In a landscape where CBP's enforcement is increasingly digital, importers that treat compliance as an afterthought will find themselves playing defense. The ones who win are the ones who treat it as infrastructure.

Compliance as a competitive advantage

It's easy to think of compliance as just a cost center—something you have to manage but don't necessarily benefit from. But in 2025, strong compliance actually unlocks more opportunity.

The companies that can prove eligibility for First Sale, defend a complex drawback claim, or validate their Chapter 98 usage don't just reduce their duty costs—they gain more flexibility, faster refunds, and fewer audit delays. They can move faster, plan better, and adapt to policy changes without disruption.

In other words, compliance is no longer the cost of doing business. It's the foundation for doing it well.

Why 2025 is the time to act

In mid‑2025, importers face an increasingly complex trade environment. New tariffs, evolving CBP enforcement, and shifting global relationships have made proactive duty strategies more urgent—and more valuable than ever.

New tariffs are here—and they're broad

Several sweeping tariff actions have launched in 2025, increasing duty rates across multiple trade flows. In April, the Trump administration rolled out "Liberation Day" reciprocal tariffs, introducing a 10% baseline duty on most imports effective April 5, followed by deeper duty escalations for about 60 countries—including rates as high as 50% or more for steel, aluminum, auto parts, and electronics.

By July, new tariffs—including a 25% duty on imports from India starting August 1—were announced without room for delay. Retail, consumer electronics, and strategic supply chains are feeling the pressure.

CBP enforcement is intensifying

This year, CBP ramped up audits and enforcement substantially. In May alone, 67 audits uncovered over $139 million in duties and fees owed—significantly more than prior months.

Automated enforcement tools are now flagging valuation anomalies, misclassification, and origin discrepancies across ACE and e‑commerce channels. In March, CBP identified $310 million in unreported duties—up from just $2.9 million in February—as new AI‑driven systems came online.

Refund windows are running out

Duty drawback claims must be submitted within five years of the original customs entry. As the April 2020 tariffs begin to expire, importers are losing time-sensitive opportunities to reclaim duties.

Every month without action erodes the refundable window—and locks potential savings permanently. For companies that paid duties in early 2020, delays now mean lost recovery options for good.

Global trade realignment creates a narrow window

Rapid shifts in sourcing—from China to Southeast Asia, Mexico, and other markets—are underway across multiple sectors. But suppliers in those markets are reaching capacity fast.

Negotiations with China, the EU, India, and others remain fluid. While some tariff pauses have been extended—like the U.S.–China truce beyond August 12—no long‑term stability is guaranteed.

Companies that delay restructuring—whether through First Sale, FTZ use, or drawback programs—are at risk of locking in higher baseline cost structures before migration options close.

Importers who act will win

Importers that move now—locking in First Sale valuations, optimizing drawback, reclassifying HTS codes, using FTZs, or building compliance automation—are creating a competitive advantage.

With tariff revenue forecast to exceed $100 billion per month and remain a key fiscal tool, pressure on supply chains isn't going away.

In short, acting now is not just about saving money—it's about staying agile, compliant, and profitable in a rapidly changing trade landscape.

Conclusion: the rules have changed—and it's time to rethink your duty strategy

In 2025, duty mitigation isn't optional—it's a strategic imperative. Tariffs are rising, audits are accelerating, and refund opportunities are quietly slipping away for companies that wait too long to act. Whether you're importing high-tariff goods, managing multi-tiered supply chains, or exporting products across borders, one fact is clear: if you're not optimizing your duty strategy, you're leaving money on the table.

This post covered the full range of tools available to today's importers—from duty drawback under 19 CFR 190, to tariff engineering, the First Sale Rule, FTZs, Chapter 98, and more. Each strategy offers meaningful savings—but the real impact comes when they're used together, with the right data, timing, and compliance structure in place.
