CAPE Drawback System Progress Update: Review Module Nears Completion, Batch Processing Still Requires Refinement

On March 20th, it was reported that U.S. Customs and Border Protection submitted a latest progress report on the CAPE Drawback System to the Court of International Trade. The report indicates that development of the system's core modules is progressing steadily, though progress varies across modules. The completion rate for the Declaration System is 73%; the Review and Approval/Re-review Module is progressing the fastest, reaching 80% completion; the Refund Module is 60% complete and is currently testing the refund consolidation function. However, the Batch Processing Module is progressing more slowly, with a completion rate of 45%. Its main functionalities (ACE system validation and event history tracking) are expected to be completed within a week and enter the testing phase. This system is designed to process drawback applications for tariffs imposed on specific Chinese goods during the Trump administration under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.
