SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN)

    Title: Registration of Money Services Businesses (RMSB) (31 CFR 
1022.380).
    OMB Control Number: 1506-0013.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.
    Description: FinCEN is issuing this notice to renew the OMB control 
number for the registration of money services business (MSB) 
regulations at 31 CFR 1022.380 and FinCEN Form 107--RMSB.
    Form: FinCEN Form 107--RMSB.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit institutions.
    Estimated Number of Potential Respondents: 24,856 MSBs.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ FinCEN's estimate of potential respondents is based on a 
count of MSBs that appear to operate as MSB principals, including 
but not limited to at least one registration filing within the most 
recent three calendar years. Because MSB agents are not typically 
subject to registration requirements, they are generally excluded 
from the population of expected respondents. See FinCEN, Agency 
Information Collection Activities; Proposed Renewal; Comment 
Request; Renewal Without Change of the Registration of Money 
Services Businesses Regulation and FinCEN Form 107, 91 FR 23348 
(Apr. 30, 2026) (RMSB Renewal Notice), at section II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Estimated Number of Expected Respondents: 17,997 MSBs annually, on 
average.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See RMSB Renewal Notice at section II; see specifically 
table 1 endnote b.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Frequency of Response: As required.
    Estimated Average Annual Burden and Cost by Type of Activity and 
Estimated Burden Hours per Respondent per Activity: See Table 1 below.

                  Activity                      respondent \a\      respondents        hours      Total cost \b\

Initial Registration........................                1.07           4,093         4,398.6        $548,507
Renewals & Re-registrations.................                0.82           8,011         6,541.6         815,928

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\a\ Hourly burden figures presented here are rounded to the nearest hundredth of an hour for presentation
  purposes. Total burden figures are produced using unrounded figures for accuracy.
\b\ Total costs include (1) labor costs associated with the burden hours presented and (2) non-labor costs for
  recordkeeping of $0.10 per response associated with storage and technology, which results in a cost per
  respondent of $0.13 for initial registrations, $0.12 for renewals and re-registrations, and $0.10 for
  maintenance of an agent list. See Table 1 in the RMSB Renewal Notice for more detail on the number of
  responses per respondent for each activity.
\c\ This estimate represents the expected number of respondents by respondent-response pairs, not the number of
  unique MSB respondents anticipated in a given year. Because an individual MSB may be subject to more than one
  type of reporting and/or recordkeeping obligation (itemized as different categories of responses) in a given
  calendar year, the same MSB may be counted more than once as an expected respondent. See RMSB Renewal Notice
  at section II.

    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 14,047 hours.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See RMSB Renewal Notice at section II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
