Know your tariff exposure before it costs you.

Unexpected rate hikes mid-shipment, comment windows that close, refund deadlines that expire quietly. Tariff Wire watches what you import every day and pings you only when your business is affected, with the official source linked so you can verify it yourself.

What keeps importers up at night

Three ways tariffs quietly cost you money. We watch all three.

RISK 1

A rate hike lands while your goods are on the water

The duty changes mid-shipment and your landed cost moves before you can react.

RISK 2

A comment or exclusion window closes before you knew it existed

You had a chance to weigh in or claim relief, but the deadline passed quietly.

RISK 3

A refund you were owed expires because nobody tracked the deadline

Duties you already paid could have come back, but the protest window closed first.

See what an alert looks like

Sample alert in the exact format Tariff Wire sends. Titles, dates, and document numbers below are illustrative, and figures assume the import values shown. Our dated call log at proof.html has no verified entries yet, so we show samples, not claims.

SAMPLE ALERT

Subject: HS 8471.30 duty up 25pts Oct 15: ~$50k/yr at risk

DEADLINE (UPCOMING): takes effect in 16 days (2026-10-15).

What changed: Section 301 determination: additional 25 percent duties on automatic data processing machines and units.

Your watchlist codes hit: HS 847130. Published: 2026-09-29 (USTR). Takes effect: 2026-10-15.

What this means for you: on stated ~$200k/year of imports in this category, a 25-point duty increase means roughly $50,000 more in duties per year once effective (Oct 15). Estimate only. Your broker confirms the actual duty.

What to do next: forward this email to your customs broker and ask if your goods are covered, and whether to accelerate or delay shipments around the effective date.

STATUS: Detected today from the official notice text. The exact duty rate is NOT yet confirmed. Official source linked in every alert.

Every alert labels honesty plainly: detected means found the same day in a published document with the rate not yet confirmed, confirmed means matched to the official structured tariff schedule. General information only, not customs brokerage or legal advice.

How it works

Three steps. You do the first one in about sixty seconds, we handle the rest.

STEP 1

Describe what you import

Plain English, not HS codes. "Stainless steel fittings from China" is perfect. Tell us what you sell and where it comes from.

STEP 2

We watch everything

We monitor the Federal Register, USTR actions, CBP notices, and court decisions daily, and map them against the products you described.

STEP 3

You get pinged when it matters

No firehose. One clear alert when a change touches your business, with the official source and date so you always know what is real.

Pricing

One missed deadline costs more than a year of monitoring. Sample math: a 10-point hike on ~$1.2M of auto parts is roughly $120,000 a year in extra duties. Tariff Wire is $49 a month. Cancel anytime.

FAQ

Is this customs brokerage?

No. Tariff Wire is general educational information, not customs brokerage and not legal advice. We report trade actions at the HS-6 product-category level with official source links. We do not make per-entry classification determinations, file anything with CBP, or act as your broker. Keep your broker. We just make sure you know what to ask them about.

How do I know an alert is real?

Every alert carries its source and date. We label each item honestly: detected means we found it the same day in a published document but the structured rate is not confirmed yet; confirmed means it matches the official structured tariff schedule. We never present a same-day detection as settled truth.

What is refund-deadline tracking?

When tariffs change, importers sometimes have a window to claim refunds on duties already paid, including the 180-day protest window after liquidation. When you share the date ranges of the entries you want to recover, we track those deadlines from your dates so a refund opportunity never expires quietly. Until you share dates, there is no personal deadline to track.

Do I need to know my HS codes?

No. Describe your products in plain English during setup and we map them internally. You never have to look at a tariff schedule unless you want to.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Monthly billing, cancel in one click, no retention calls. Annual plans refund pro-rata.

How does the 7-day trial work?

Start with your card on file and pay nothing for 7 days. You get the full Pro watchlist, alerts, and refund-deadline tracking from day one. Cancel before day 7 and you are never charged. After the trial, it is $49/month or $490/year, whichever you picked.

What is the refund policy?

7-day money-back guarantee. If Tariff Wire is not worth it, reply to any of our emails within 7 days of your first charge and we will refund it in full, no questions asked.
