6 days agoLenovo, Nintendo, sue US government, seeking tariff refunds
Tech companies are suing the US government for refunds of tariffs declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in February 2025.
Federal regulations outline that in the case of an overpayment for duties, including those determined to be illegal, those payments must be returned with interest. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) outlines this interest compounds daily at an annualized rate of 4.5% for overpayments more than $10,000 and 6% on overpayments less than that.
