Turn electronics complexity into recovered revenue.

Duty recovery captured at the scale and speed your supply chains demand.

Pax for Electronics

Complexity isn't the obstacle. It's where the value hides.

BOMs revise and product cycles close before most programs can capture the duty value. Pax traces every component through every revision and files before the window closes.

    AI-optimized claim filing

    Import records, BOM data, and exports rarely live together. Pax reconciles them automatically.

What Sets Us Apart

Years of exposure captured.
Every cycle recovered.

  • Recover from closed product cycles

    Pax analyzes five years of imports, surfacing drawback and Section 301 exposure from cycles already closed.

  • Keep pace with product launches

    Claims file continuously, so duty value doesn't disappear when a product updates or gets replaced.

  • Act before windows close

    Filing windows, open claims, and component status visible in real time, so you can act before a window closes.

  • End manual reconciliation

    Import records, BOM data, and export documentation connected and reconciled automatically.

FAQ

  • 01

    Do returned or unused consumer electronics qualify for duty drawback?

    Yes. Imported electronics that are returned unused and then exported or destroyed in customs custody qualify for unused-merchandise drawback, including under substitution where the exported product shares the same HTS classification.

  • 02

    Can U.S. electronics manufacturers claim drawback on imported components?

    Yes. Duties paid on imported components, semiconductors, and sub-assemblies consumed in manufacturing exported devices are recoverable under manufacturing drawback, often up to 99% of duties and fees paid.

  • 03

    What types of electronics imports and exports qualify?

    Semiconductors, displays, finished devices, and the components that go into them all qualify, whether they are re-exported unused or consumed in the production of exported finished goods.

  • 04

    Can electronics brands claim drawback on goods exported through global fulfillment centers?

    Yes. Goods routed through international fulfillment centers and distribution hubs stay traceable to their original import entry, and Pax builds the chain of custody needed to recover duty wherever the goods are ultimately exported.
