據央視財經援引路透社報道，美國特朗普政府計劃于當地時間4月20日（下周一），正式啟動一個關稅退款系統，用于向進口商退還1660億美元（約合人民幣1.13萬億元）的關稅，這些關稅在今年2月被美國最高法院裁定為“非法”。
US President Donald Trump's administration plans to launch next Monday the system it will use for issuing refunds to American importers for $166 billion the companies paid in tariffs that ?the US Supreme Court struck down in February as unlawful.
據報道，美國海關與邊境保護局14日在一份提交給國際貿易法院的法庭文件中表示，已基本完成向進口商大規模退款的報關系統第一階段研發，將于20日啟動相關關稅退款工作。退款將以電子方式統一發放，并在適用情況下附帶利息，取代此前逐筆處理的方式。
US Customs and Border Protection said, in a court filing on Tuesday that it has completed the development of the initial phase of the refund system, known as CAPE. The system will consolidate refunds so importers will receive one electronic payment, with interest when applicable, rather than processing refunds on an entry-by-entry basis.
今年2月20日，美國最高法院裁決，特朗普依據《國際緊急經濟權力法》在全球范圍內實施的關稅措施，超越授權范圍，屬于違法行為。隨后，大量進口商向國際貿易法院提起訴訟，要求退款。
該法院3月4日作出裁決，要求美國海關與邊境保護局向約33萬名進口商退還1660億美元的關稅款。數據顯示，截至4月9日，已有約5.6萬名進口商完成電子退款流程，涉及總金額達1270億美元（約合人民幣8660億元）。
According to recently reviewed data, approximately 56,497 importers have completed the necessary registration for electronic refunds as of April 9. This represents a staggering $127 billion in claims linked to the court's ruling, signalling a massive corporate effort to recoup capital previously tied up in the illegal tariff structure, Reuters reported.
