Foreign Agricultural Service
Title: Dairy Tariff-Rate Import Quota Licensing Regulation.
OMB Control Number: 0551-0001.
Summary of Collection: The Dairy Tariff-Rate Import Quota
regulation (7 CFR 6.20-6.37) governs the administration of the import
licensing system applicable to most dairy products subject to tariff-
rate quotas (TRQs). The importation of most cheese made from cow's milk
and certain noncheese dairy articles (butter, dried milks, and butter
substitutes) are subject to TRQs and must be accompanied by an import
license issued by the Department to enter at the lower tariff.
Importers without licenses may enter these dairy articles, but are
required to pay the higher tariff.
Each quota year, applicants for historical, non-historical and
designated licenses must certify their eligibility for the following
quota year through the online Agricultural Trade License Administration
System (ATLAS) platform. The ATLAS application process requires
applicants to: (1) certify they are an importer, manufacturer, or
exporter of certain dairy products; and (2) certify they meet the
eligibility requirements of Sec. 6.23 of the Regulation. Applicants
for non-historical licenses must request licenses in descending order
of preference for specific products and countries listed on the form.
Need and Use of the Information: The information collected will be
used by the Foreign Agricultural Service, Dairy Import Licensing Group,
in the administration of the tariff-rate import quota licensing system
for certain dairy products and the issuance of licenses in accordance
with the Regulation. The Regulation requires records pertaining to an
applicant's eligibility to be retained for 5 years after the end of a
quota year.
Description of Respondents: Importers and manufacturers of cheese
and non-cheese dairy products, and exporters of non-cheese dairy
products.
Number of Respondents: 700.
Frequency of Responses: Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 394.
