DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

 


    The Department of Commerce (DOC) has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for 
collection of information under provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).
    Title: Import Certificates, End-User Certificates, and Delivery 
Verification Procedures.
    Agency Form Number: None.
    OMB Approval Number: New.
    Type of Request: New collection.
    Burden: 1,968 hours.
    Average Time Per Response: 15 to 30 minutes per response.
    Number of Respondents: 6,420 respondents.
    Needs and Uses: Import or End-User Certificates are an undertaking 
by the government of the country of ultimate destination (the issuing 
government) to exercise legal control over the disposition of the items 
covered by the importer (ultimate consignee or purchaser) and 
transmitted to the exporter (applicant). The control exercised by the 
government issuing the Import or End-User Certificate is in addition to 
the conditions and restrictions placed on the transaction by BIS. This 
collection of information also contains recordkeeping and reporting 
requirements that involve Import or End-user Certificates as supporting 
documentation accompanying an application for an export license 
(approved by OMB under control no. 0694-0088). Another reporting 
requirement allows exporters to request an exception to the imports 
certificate (or its equivalent) procedure. This reporting requirement 
also covers requests for exceptions to the delivery verification 
procedure.
    Affected Public: Individuals, businesses or other for-profit 
institutions.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
    OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker.
    Copies of the above information collection proposal can be obtained
