rate paid on
[[Page 19498]]
applicable overpayments or underpayments of customs duties must be in
accordance with the Internal Revenue Code rate established under 26

by the Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998,
Public Law 105-206, 112 Stat. 685) to provide different interest rates
applicable to overpayments: one for corporations and one for non-

The interest rates are based on the Federal short-term rate and
determined by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on behalf of the
Secretary of the Treasury on a quarterly basis. The rates effective for
a quarter are determined during the first-month period of the previous

2005. The interest rate paid to the Treasury for underpayments will be
the Federal short-term rate (3%) plus three percentage points (3%) for
a total of six percent (6%). For corporate overpayments, the rate is
the Federal short-term rate (3%) plus two percentage points (2%) for a
total of five percent (5%). For overpayments made by non-corporations,
the rate is the Federal short-term rate (3%) plus three percentage
points (3%) for a total of six percent (6%). These interest rates are
subject to change for the calendar quarter beginning July 1, 2005, and
ending September 30, 2005.
For the convenience of the importing public and Customs and Border
Protection personnel the following list of IRS interest rates used,
