    CBP routed drawback claims to the Petroleum, Natural Gas, and Minerals Center starting April 22, 2026

    CBP announced that drawback claims transmitted in ACE are routed directly to the Petroleum, Natural Gas and Minerals Center (PNGM Center) effective April 22, 2026. The drawback program and Drawback Specialists were consolidated under this center on October 6, 2025. Claims are assigned to Team FDK and routed internally to a drawback specialist team based on the first character of the importer of record. Claims, privilege applications, and paper claims filed before April 21, 2026 stay with the office that originally received them.

    This message set new internal CBP routing for drawback claims and gave specific email contacts by importer of record letter, which applied from April 22, 2026 onward. We file drawback claims through ACE as required and this change affects how CBP processes them internally, not how we submit them. Clients with open drawback claims or questions about which CBP office now handles their case should ask us to confirm the current routing for their entries.
