FedEx is seeking a full refund of the import tariffs it paid under former President Donald Trump's emergency‑powers trade policy, following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down the tariff program as unconstitutional.

The company has filed an 11‑page complaint with the U.S. Court of International Trade, arguing that the duties collected under the invalidated orders caused direct financial harm. 

The lawsuit, filed against U.S. Customs and Border Protection, argues that FedEx "paid IEEPA duties to the United States and thus has suffered injury caused by those orders," and that the court has the authority to order repayment.

The filing makes FedEx one of the first major U.S. companies to pursue refunds following the ruling, which invalidated Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose broad tariffs on imports from nearly all trading partners.

Other companies had challenged the duties earlier, but the Supreme Court's decision has accelerated new claims. 

FedEx's move comes as industry groups and importers assess the financial implications of the ruling and consider their own refund strategies. The company has also said it intends to pass any recovered funds back to affected customers. 

The case adds to the growing legal and commercial fallout from the Supreme Court's decision, underscoring the broader financial implications for importers and opening the door for companies to challenge and recoup duties paid under the now‑invalidated policy — an outcome that could shape how businesses manage tariff exposure and legal risk in future trade disputes.
