DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Bureau of Industry and Security
Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission to the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for Review and Approval; Comment
Request; Import, End-User, Delivery Verification Certificates and
Firearms Entry Clearance Requirements
The Department of Commerce will submit the following information
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication of this notice. We invite the
general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed, and
continuing information collections, which helps us assess the impact of
our information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the
Federal Register on September 19, 2023, during a 60-day comment period.
This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.
Agency: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
Title: Import, End-User, Delivery Verification Certificates and
Firearms Entry Clearance Requirements.
OMB Control Number: 0694-0093.
Form Number(s): BIS-645P, BIS 647-P.
Type of Request: Extension of a current information collection.
Number of Respondents: 11,776.
Average Hours per Response: 1 to 30 minutes.
Burden Hours: 1,630.
Needs and Uses: This collection of information addresses three
activities: (1) Import Certificates/End Use Certificates, (2) Delivery
Verification, and (3) Firearms Entry Clearance Requirements.
Import Certificates or End-User Certificates (IC/EUC)--The IC/EUC,
BIS-645P, is obtained by the foreign importer and transmitted to the
U.S. exporter. They are issued by the government of the country of
ultimate destination to exercise legal control over the disposition of
the items covered by the IC/EUC. The control exercised by the
government issuing the IC/EUC is in addition to the conditions and
restrictions placed on the transaction by BIS.
Delivery Verification--The Delivery Verification Certificate (DV)
is required by BIS as part of its export control program. The license
holder is responsible for having the ultimate consignee complete the
BIS-647P, Delivery Verification Certificate Form when the goods are
delivered. BIS uses the DV procedure on an ``as needed'' basis. The DV
is usually required when there is suspicion of violation of the EAR.
Therefore, if the exporter cannot supply the DV, BIS must be notified
to determine if an exception is legitimate. Otherwise, the exporter
would be in violation of the EAR.
Firearms Entry Clearance Requirements--This entry clearance
requirement is necessary due to the changes by the President in
determining that certain items no longer warrant control under United
States Munitions List (USML) Category I--Firearms, Close Assault
Weapons and Combat Shotguns; Category II--Guns and Armament; and
Category III--Ammunition/Ordnance would be controlled under the
Commerce Control List (CCL). As the State Department previously
collected this same type of information, the Department of Commerce
controls the CCL and must now take over this collection of information.
Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
Frequency: On Occasion.
Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: Sec. Sec. 748.9, 748.10, 748.12, 748.14, Part 748
Supplement No. 5, 758.10, 762.5(d), 762.6, 764.2(g)(2), and of the
Export Administration Regulations (EAR).
