Joyce Adetutu, Jason Fleischer, and Stephen Josey emphasize that the unresolved legal status of the IEEPA tariffs creates significant uncertainty for importers. With the tariffs still being collected during appeal, businesses risk overpaying and should consider filing protests to safeguard potential refunds. To navigate this shifting landscape, importers must stay alert to liquidation deadlines and build tariff-related contingencies into their contracts.
