Shippers such as FedEx, UPS, and DHL have begun passing on tariff refunds received from the U.S. government to customers who originally paid the tariffs for imported goods. These refunds are part of a monthslong process initiated after the Supreme Court struck down sweeping tariffs implemented by President Donald Trump in March 2025. Consumers can check carrier portals, like FedEx's website, to determine if they are due a refund, though most big retailers used the funds to lower prices rather than issuing direct consumer refunds.
