(a) Except in the case of goods specified in § 182.45, drawback of the duties previously paid upon importation of a good into the United States may be granted by the United States, upon presentation of a USMCA drawback claim under this subpart, on the lower amount of:

(1) The total duties paid or owed on the good in the United States; or

(2) The total amount of duties paid on the exported good upon subsequent importation into Canada or Mexico.

(b) A drawback claim will not be liquidated until either a written waiver of the right to protest under 19 U.S.C. 1514 is filed with CBP or the liquidation of the import entry has become final under U.S. law. In addition, except in the case of goods covered by § 182.45 of this subpart, a drawback claim must not be liquidated for a period of three years after the date of entry of the goods in Canada or Mexico. A drawback claim may be adjusted pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 4534(e)(1) even after liquidation of the U.S. import entry has become final.

(A) Where a good is imported into the United States pursuant to a duty-deferral program and is subsequently withdrawn from the duty-deferral program for exportation to Canada or Mexico or is used as a material in the production of another good that is subsequently withdrawn from the duty-deferral program for exportation to Canada or Mexico, and provided that the good is a “good subject to USMCA drawback” within the meaning of 19 U.S.C. 4534 and is not described in § 182.45 of this subpart, the documentation required to be filed under this section in connection with the exportation of the good will, for purposes of this chapter, constitute an USMCA entry or withdrawal for consumption and the exported good must be subject to duty which will be assessed in accordance with paragraph (b) of this section.
