CalAmp Tariff Refund Update

Home / Company / Tariffs

CalAmp is committed to supporting our customers as global trade requirements continue to evolve.

Following recent court decisions, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has been directed to refund certain 2025 tariffs collected under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) that were determined to be invalid. CBP established its Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE) system to facilitate the submission and processing of eligible refund requests.

As of August 7, 2026, CalAmp has submitted all currently eligible IEEPA tariff refund requests identified under applicable CBP guidance. We continue to monitor CBP processing and any future guidance regarding additional refund opportunities.

For shipments in which CalAmp acted as the Importer of Record, customers generally do not need to take any action. If and to the extent CalAmp receives tariff refunds from CBP attributable to tariff charges borne by a customer, CalAmp intends to provide an appropriate reimbursement to the affected customer.

CBP has indicated that processing and payment of approved refunds may take time and remain subject to CBP review and Treasury payment processes. CalAmp cannot provide any reimbursement until applicable funds have been received and reconciled.

Customers seeking additional information regarding the refund program may refer to CBP's IEEPA refund guidance.

Current Tariff Status (Updated August 7, 2026)

On July 24, 2026, certain Section 122 tariffs expired and were replaced by new country-specific tariff measures. As a result, duty rates applicable to some CalAmp products increased from 10% to 12.5%. Actual impact varies by product and sourcing location. Customers should contact their CalAmp sales representative for product-specific tariff information.

CalAmp continues to monitor developments closely and will share updates as additional information becomes available. Our focus remains on minimizing disruption and supporting customers through this evolving process.
