A duty drawback is a refund, in part or in whole, of customs-related fees such as tariffs, duties, and other taxes. In circumstances where an importer destroys or exports goods which they have imported, they may qualify for a drawback claim to have some or all of of the duties paid on the goods refunded.

Drawback claims must be filed via a CBP-authorized Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) system. The importer must also include a drawback entry with the claim, which contains pertinent information about the article(s) destroyed or exported.
