Amazon is splitting its $600 million tariff refund with customers - here's who's eligible
ZDNET • • business
Key Points:
- Amazon is set to receive a $600 million refund from US Customs and Border Protection following the Supreme Court ruling that tariffs enacted by former President Trump were illegal.
- The company will automatically pass these tariff refunds directly to customers who purchased eligible items, with no action required on their part.
- Refunds will apply primarily to purchases made directly from Amazon during the tariff period between late April 2025 and February 2026, as most tariffs affected third-party sellers who are not eligible for refunds.
- Amazon will proactively identify affected customers and issue reimbursements, with notifications sent directly to buyers of items where import charges were passed on.
- There is currently no announced timeframe for when customers can expect to see these tariff refunds reflected in their accounts.
