SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Public Participation and Request for Comments

    This notice relies on the authority of the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995; 44 U.S.C., chapter 35, as amended. An ICR is an application to 
OIRA seeking the approval, extension, or renewal of a Coast Guard 
collection of information (Collection). The ICR contains information 
describing the Collection's purpose, the Collection's likely burden on 
the affected public, an explanation of the necessity of the Collection, 
and other important information describing the Collection. There is one 
ICR for each Collection.
    The Coast Guard invites comments on whether this ICR should be 
granted based on the Collection being necessary for the proper 
performance of Departmental functions. In particular, the Coast Guard 
would appreciate comments addressing: (1) the practical utility of the 
Collection; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden of the Collection; 
(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of information 
subject to the Collection; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the 
Collection on respondents, including the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology. These comments 
will help OIRA determine whether to approve the ICR referred to in this 
Notice.
    We encourage you to respond to this request by submitting comments 
and related materials. Comments to Coast Guard or OIRA must contain the 
OMB Control Number of the ICR. They must also contain the docket number

Previous Request for Comments

    This request provides a 30-day comment period required by OIRA. The 
Coast Guard published the 60-day notice (90 FR 25061, June 13, 2025) 
required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That notice elicited two submissions. 
One submission was unrelated to the notice, and one submission had four 
ICR-related comments. First, the commenter stated that they appreciate 
the ongoing efforts to reduce administrative burdens and streamline 
reporting requirements to U.S. Authorities. Second, the commenter 
supports the implementation of Maritime Single Windows (MSW) and 
emphasizes their critical role in enhancing customs and port 
cooperation. Third, the commenter supports the development of 
international standards to allow for the systematic collection of 
Advance Passenger Information (API) and Booking Reservation Information 
(BRI) from cruise passenger vessel operators and the alignment of any 
passenger and crew data standards with the International Maritime 
Organization Facilitation Convention. Fourth, the commenter recommends 
that the Coast Guard add to its website a point of contact to resolve 
data transmission challenges. To assist vessel operators in the 
submission of advance notice of arrival data and resolve any data 
transmission challenges, the Coast Guard currently has on our National 
Vessel Movement Center (NVMC) web page (<a href="http://www.nvmc.uscg.gov">www.nvmc.uscg.gov</a>) links to 
User Guides, Frequently Asked Questions, an email address and contact 
phone numbers that are staffed 24/7. Accordingly, no changes have been 
made to the Collection.
