SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1505 and Treasury Decision 85-93, published
in the Federal Register on May 29, 1985 (50 FR 21832), the interest
rate paid on applicable overpayments or underpayments of customs duties
must be in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code rate established
under 26 U.S.C. 6621 and 6622. Section 6621 was amended (at paragraph
(a)(1)(B) 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-corporations.
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
quarter.
In Revenue Ruling 2010-21, the IRS determined the rates of interest
for the calendar quarter beginning October 1, 2010, and ending on
December 31, 2010. The interest rate paid to the Treasury for
underpayments will be the Federal short-term rate (1%) plus three
percentage points (3%) for a total of four percent (4%). For corporate
overpayments, the rate is the Federal short-term rate (1%) plus two
percentage points (2%) for a total of three percent (3%). For
overpayments made by non-corporations, the rate is the Federal short-
term rate (1%) plus three percentage points (3%) for a total of four
percent (4%). These interest rates are subject to change for the
calendar quarter beginning January 1, 2011, and ending March 31, 2011.
For the convenience of the importing public and Customs and Border
Protection personnel the following list of IRS interest rates used,
covering the period from before July of 1974 to date, to calculate
interest on overdue accounts and refunds of customs duties, is
published in summary format.
