Overview of This Information Collection
Title: Create/Update Importer Identity Form.
OMB Number: 1651-0064.
Form Number: 5106.
Current Actions: This submission will extend the collection
authority with an increase in the estimated numbers of respondents and

Abstract: The collection of the information on the ``Create/Update
Importer Identity Form'', commonly referred to as ``CBP Form 5106,'' is
the basis for establishing bond coverage, release and entry of
merchandise, liquidation, and the issuance of bills and refunds.
Members of the trade community use the Create/Update Importer
Identification Form to register an entity as an Importer of Record
(IOR) in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). Registering as IOR
with CBP is required if an entity intends to transact Customs business
and be involved as an importer, consignee/ultimate consignee, any
individual or organization involved as a party, such as 4811 party, or
sold to party on an informal or formal entry. The number used to
identify an IOR is either an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Employer
Identification Number (EIN), a Social Security Number (SSN), or a CBP-
Assigned Number. Collecting this information from the importer enables
CBP to verify the identity of the importers and meet regulatory
requirements for collecting information.
Each person, business firm, government agency, or other
organization shall file CBP Form 5106 with the first formal entry or
request for services that will result in the issuance of a bill or a
refund check upon adjustment of a cash collection. This form is also
filed for the ultimate consignee for whom an entry is being made.
CBP Form 5106 is authorized by 19 U.S.C 1484 and 31 U.S.C. 7701 and
provided for by 19 CFR 24.5. The current version of the form is
accessible on the CBP Forms website.
Type of Information Collection: Importer ID Import Record (Form
5106).
Estimated Number of Respondents: 432,000.
Estimated Number of Annual Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Number of Total Annual Responses: 432,000.
Estimated Time per Response: 45 minutes.
[[Page 70657]]
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 324,000.
