U.S. imports of us-origin articles exported & returned without advancement (HS 980100) totaled $9.5B in April 2026, traded with 177 countries.
Importers of US-Origin Articles Exported & Returned Without Advancement paid $4K in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 0.0% on $68.9M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataDuty-free re-entry under this special tariff provision applies to US-origin goods returned without having been advanced in value or improved in condition abroad — a mechanism widely used for warranty returns, trade-show samples, and goods rejected by foreign buyers. The heading is subdivided into dozens of product-specific lines covering everything from meat and poultry (9801001015) to aircraft components (9801001075–9801001079) and furniture (9801001092), reflecting the breadth of US exports that cycle back through the border. Canada, Germany, and Mexico are the leading origins of return shipments, consistent with the volume of US manufacturing exports to those markets. Importers must document the US origin of the goods and confirm that no foreign processing, repair, or value addition occurred abroad; even minor alterations can disqualify a shipment from this provision and shift it to the 9802 heading.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
CBP requires evidence of US origin (such as the original export entry or shipper's export declaration), a declaration that the goods were not advanced in value or improved in condition abroad, and a description of why the goods are being returned. For certain product categories — particularly meat and poultry under 9801001015 — USDA FSIS reinspection requirements apply independently of the customs duty treatment. A licensed customs broker can help assemble the correct entry package for each product type.
CBP applies a facts-and-circumstances test: any foreign labor, processing, or material addition that increases the article's market value or improves its condition generally constitutes advancement. Cleaning, repackaging, or incidental handling typically does not. If a returned machine was serviced or repaired abroad — even under warranty — it may need to be entered under heading 9802 instead, where duty applies only to the value of the foreign repair work rather than the full value of the article.
