Federal agencies to comment on
proposed and/or continuing information
collections pursuant to the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13).

whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimates of the burden of the

In this document CBP is soliciting
comments concerning the following
information collection:
Title: Foreign Assembler’s Declaration
(with Endorsement by Importer).
OMB Number: 1651–0031.
Form Number: None.
Abstract: In accordance with 19 CFR
10.24, a Foreign Assembler’s
Declaration must be made in connection
with the entry of assembled articles
under subheading 9802.00.80,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). This declaration
includes information such as the
quantity, value and description of the
imported merchandise. The declaration
is made by the person who performed
the assembly operations abroad and it
includes an endorsement by the
importer. The Foreign Assembler’s
Declaration is used by CBP to determine
whether the operations performed are
within the purview of subheading
9802.00.80, HTSUS and therefore
eligible for preferential tariff treatment.
19 CFR 10.24(c) and (d) require that
the importer/assembler maintain
records for 5 years from the date of the
related entry and that they make these
records readily available to CBP for
audit, inspection, copying, and
reproduction.
Current Actions: CBP proposes to
extend the expiration date of this
