CBP Extends Comment Period on Info Collection for Goods Exported for Repair

CBP is requesting comments by Aug. 22 on an existing information collection for certificates of registration. CBP proposes to extend the expiration date of this information collection without a change to the burden hours or information collected.

CBP Form 4455, Certificate of Registration

Certificate of Registration is used primarily for the registration, examination, and supervised lading of commercial shipments of articles exported for repair, alteration, or processing, which will subsequently be returned to the United States either duty free or at a reduced duty rate.

CBP Estimates

CBP estimated 60,000 total annual responses, estimated to create about 9,960 total annual burden hours.

Comments Requested on Ways to Minimize Burden, Etc.

CBP is asking for comments from the general public and other federal agencies on (a) whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimates of the burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden, including the use of automated collection techniques or the use of other forms of information technology.
