Tariff Update 3.9.2021

Many customers have been asking about the pause on tariffs on wine from the EU. We are currently waiting for Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) to issue a federal register notice which should include an effective date for the end of tariff payments. At that point we will do our best to adjust filings and obtain refunds on tariffs where possible. Currently, the customs entry system still requires us to add tariffs and until that is updated, we have to continue to submit entries as is to avoid port/detention/demurrage fees.

 

The Wine and Spirits Shippers Association has a good write up summarizing the UK/US tariff elimination vs the EU/US pause.
