Overview of This Information Collection
Title: General Declaration.
OMB Number: 1651-0002.
Form Number: CBP Form 7507.
Current Actions: CBP proposes to reduce the burden for this
information collection by streamlining the Form 7507 and removing
certain data elements.
Type of Review: Revision.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Abstract: CBP Form 7507, General Declaration, must be filed for all
aircraft required to enter or depart under the provisions of 19 CFR
122.41 or 122.61. This form is used to document entrance and clearance
for arriving and departing aircraft at the required inspection
facilities and inspections by appropriate regulatory agency staffs.
Flight identifying information, including the aircraft registration
number, which is not collected elsewhere by CBP, and a declaration
attesting to the accuracy, completeness and truthfulness of all other
documents that make up the manifest shall be submitted on the CBP Form
7507 for aircraft entering or departing the United States, with certain
exceptions.
Proposed Change
To reduce paperwork and reduce duplication of information, the CBP
Form 7507 is being streamlined, and will no longer require respondents
to provide passenger and crew information, a declaration of health for
the persons on board, and details about disinfecting and sanitizing
treatments during the flight. The General Declaration (CBP Form 7507)
will now only contain:
1. Flight identifying information.
2. The aircraft registration number (if not otherwise collected or
received by CBP).
3. A declaration attesting to the accuracy, completeness, and
truthfulness of all other documents that make up the manifest.
CBP Form 7507 is authorized by 19 U.S.C. 1431, 1433, and 1644a; and
provided for by 19 CFR 122.43, 122.52, 122.54, 122.73, and 122.144.
