SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: OFAC Reporting, Procedures and Penalties Regulations
Sanctions Reconsideration Portal.
OMB Number: 1505-0164.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Description: OFAC is seeking to add a new electronic Sanctions
Reconsideration Portal information collection contained within Sec.
501.807 of OFAC's Reporting, Procedures and Penalties Regulations (the
``Regulations''), which pertains to the operation of the various
economic sanctions programs administered by OFAC under 31 CFR chapter
V. Section 501.807 sets forth the procedures to be followed by a person
seeking administrative reconsideration of the listing of a person or
property (e.g., a vessel) on OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and
Blocked Persons List (SDN List) or any other list or identification of
sanctioned persons or property maintained by OFAC. OFAC is seeking
approval of an electronic Sanctions Reconsideration Portal that would
gather specific information from the petitioner and provide a more
efficient process for collecting and reviewing applications for
reconsideration. Petitioner use of the Sanctions Reconsideration Portal
will be voluntary. OFAC is also incorporating the voluntary Unblocking/
Transfer Report Form, TD F 93.10, that was approved by OMB on September
11, 2025. OFAC is not making any further changes to other collections
associated with this control number.
The submissions covered by this information collection will be
reviewed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and may be used for
sanctions reconsiderations and other regulatory or administrative
actions by OFAC under its authorities.
Forms: The proposed Sanctions Reconsideration Portal information
collection covered by this notice will contain a list of questions to
provide electronically regarding the reasons and supporting information
for the petitioner's request for consideration of removal from an OFAC
sanctions list. Additionally, OFAC is incorporating into this
collection the Unblocking/Transfer Report Form, TD F 93.10, that was
approved by OMB on September 11, 2025.
Affected Public: The likely respondents and recordkeepers affected
by the information collections covered by this authority are financial
institutions, business organizations, nonprofit organizations,
individuals, persons sanctioned by OFAC, and legal representatives.
Estimated Number of Respondents: OFAC's estimate for the total
number of unique reporting respondents covered in this entire
information collection in a one-year period is approximately 10,900,
including OFAC's estimate for the 300 unique respondents for the
Sanctions Reconsideration Portal.
Frequency of Response: The estimated annual frequency of responses
for the Sanctions Reconsideration Portal is approximately once. Under
this entire information collection, the estimated annual frequency of
all types of responses is between 1 and 17,800, varying greatly by
entity depending on the size, nature, and scope of business activities
of each respondent, with the majority of filers providing a small
number of responses and a small number of filers submitting a higher
number of responses.
Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: The estimated total
number of responses per year is approximately 2,503,008 responses,
including the additional estimate of 300 responses for the Sanctions
Reconsideration Portal.
Estimated Time per Response: OFAC estimates that the average time
for reports associated with forms ranges from 15 minutes to two hours
and for reports associated with general licenses and other reports not
associated with forms ranges from one minute to five hours, as noted
below in the more detailed background section. OFAC estimates that the
average time for reports associated with the Sanctions Reconsideration
Portal to be three hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: The estimated total annual
reporting burden associated with all of the information collections
covered by this authority is approximately 87,209 hours, including the
additional estimated reporting burden of 900 for the Sanctions
Reconsideration Portal and the slight increase in burden of 91 for the
Unblocking/Transfer form.
