- 联邦快递因最高法院关税裁决被起诉要求退款
- 联邦快递承诺若收到关税退款，将向客户退还相关费用
- 包括孩之宝（Hasbro）在内的数千家公司起诉要求关税退款
华盛顿，2月27日（路透社） – 在美国最高法院本月裁定唐纳德·特朗普总统非法对进口商品征收数十亿美元紧急关税后，联邦快递（FedEx）于周五被联邦法院起诉，客户代表要求这家全球航运公司退还关税。
佛罗里达州迈阿密联邦法院提起的集体诉讼，旨在为可能数百万名支付了进口关税及相关费用的托运人寻求赔偿，这些托运人称其产品本应免税进入美国。

联邦快递周五在声明中表示：“如果联邦政府向我们退还关税，我们将向最初承担这些费用的托运人和消费者退还相应款项。”
周五的诉讼称，联邦快递的退款承诺在法律上无法执行。原告马修·莱泽（Matthew Reiser）的律师约翰·扬丘尼斯（John Yanchunis）表示：“我们的目标是向美国消费者追回每一分被不当收取的费用。”
联邦快递是至少2000家在美国国际贸易法院起诉联邦政府的企业之一，这些企业要求追回根据《国际紧急经济权力法》（IEEPA）缴纳的进口商品关税。美国最高法院2月20日以6比3的投票结果裁定，特朗普越权使用紧急权力法实施广泛关税。
原告莱泽称，他从德国零售商处购买网球鞋时，联邦快递向其收取了36美元费用，其中包括21美元IEEPA关税和15美元经纪及清关费——而诉讼称该笔关税本不应征收。
周五，玩具制造商孩之宝也加入数千家在国际贸易法院起诉政府要求关税退款的企业行列。法国美妆集团欧莱雅、英国吸尘器制造商戴森、隐形眼镜制造商博士伦（Bausch + Lomb），以及好市多（Costco）、J. Crew等零售商也已提起诉讼。

WASHINGTON, Feb 27 (Reuters) – FedEx was sued in federal court on Friday on behalf of customers seeking refunds from the global shipping company after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled this month that President Donald Trump unlawfully imposed billions of dollars in emergency tariffs on imported goods.
The proposed class action in the federal court in Miami, Florida, seeks compensation for potentially millions of shippers who paid import duties and related fees on products that they said should have entered the United States duty-free.

FedEx said in a statement on Friday: “If refunds are issued to FedEx, we will issue refunds to the shippers and consumers who originally bore those charges.”
Friday’s lawsuit said FedEx’s promise was not legally enforceable. “Our goal is to return to American consumers every penny they were improperly charged,” said John Yanchunis, a lawyer for plaintiff Matthew Reiser, a Miami resident.
FedEx is among at least 2,000 companies already suing the federal government in the U.S. Court of International Trade to recover tariffs they paid on imported goods under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, known as IEEPA. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on February 20 in a 6-3 decision that Trump overstepped his authority by using the emergency powers law to impose sweeping tariffs.
Reiser, the plaintiff in Friday’s lawsuit, said FedEx billed him $36 – $21 in IEEPA duties and $15 in brokerage and clearance fees – for his purchase of tennis shoes from a German retailer. The lawsuit said no duty should have been required.
On Friday, toymaker Hasbro joined the thousands of companies suing the government for tariff refunds in the U.S. Court of International Trade. French beauty group L’Oreal, British vacuum manufacturer Dyson and contact lens maker Bausch + Lomb also have filed lawsuits, in addition to retailers such as Costco and J. Crew.
