A. Justification

  1. Explain the circumstances that make the collection of information necessary. Identify any legal or administrative requirements that necessitate the collection. Attach a copy of the appropriate section of each statute and regulation mandating or authorizing the collection of information.


CBP Form 6043, Delivery Ticket, is used to document transfers of imported merchandise between parties. This form collects information such as the name and address of the consignee; the name of the importing carrier; lien information; the location of where the goods originated and where they were delivered; and information about the imported merchandise. CBP Form 6043 is filled out by warehouse proprietors, carriers, Foreign Trade Zone operators and others involved in transfers of imported merchandise. This form is authorized by 19 USC 1551a and 1565, and provided for by 19 CFR 4.34, 4.37 and 19.9. It is accessible at: http://forms.cbp.gov/pdf/CBP_Form_6043.pdf

2. Indicate how, by whom, and for what purpose the information is to be used. Except for a new collection, indicate the actual use the agency has made of the information received from the current collection.

The information is to be used by CBP officers to document transfers of imported merchandise between parties.


  1. Describe whether, and to what extent, the collection of information involves the use of automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g. permitting electronic submission of responses, and the basis for the decision for adopting this means of collection. Also describe any consideration of using information technology to reduce burden.


The information on the Delivery Ticket, Form 6043 can be transmitted electronically through the Automated Manifest System (AMS).  It is estimated that approximately 20 percent are filed through AMS.  This information can also be submitted in person, by fax, or email.  CBP ports work with their local trade community to ensure they have the necessary contact information to fax or email Form 6043.


4. Describe efforts to identify duplication. Show specifically why any similar information already available cannot be used or modified for use for the purposes described in Item 2 above.


This information is not duplicated in any other place or any other form.


5. If the collection of information impacts small businesses or other small entities, describe any methods used to minimize burden.


This information collection does not have an impact on small businesses or other small entities.

6. Describe consequences to Federal program or policy activities if the collection is not conducted or is conducted less frequently.


Without this information, CBP would not be able to document transfers of imported merchandise between parties.


7. Explain any special circumstances.


This information is collected in a manner consistent with the guidelines of 5 CFR 1320.5(d)(2).


8. If applicable, provide a copy and identify the date and page number of publication in the Federal Register of the agency's notice, required by 5 CFR 1320.8(d), soliciting comments on the information collection prior to submission to OMB. Summarize public comments received in response to that notice and describe actions taken by the agency in response to these comments. Specifically address comments received on cost and hour burden.

Public comments were solicited through two Federal Register notices published on October 31, 2012 (Volume 77, Page 65900) on which no comments were received, and on January 8 (Volume 78, Page 1219) on which no comments have been received.


9. Explain any decision to provide any payment or gift to respondents, other than remuneration of contractors or grantees.


There is no offer of a monetary or material value for this information collection.


10. Describe any assurance of confidentiality provided to respondents and the basis for the assurance in statute, regulation, or agency policy.

There is no PII associated with this collection of information. There are no assurances of confidentiality provided to the respondents.


11. Provide additional justification for any questions of a sensitive nature, such as sexual behavior and attitudes, religious beliefs, and other matters that are commonly considered private. This justification should include the reasons why the agency considers the questions necessary, the specific uses to be made of the information, the explanation to be given to persons from whom the information is requested, and any steps to be taken to obtain their consent.

There are no questions of a sensitive nature.


12. Provide estimates of the hour burden of the collection of information.

Public Cost

The estimated cost to the respondents is $1,320,000. This is based on the estimated burden hours (66,000) multiplied (x) the hourly rate ($20.00).

13. Provide an estimate of the total annual cost burden to respondents or record keepers resulting from the collection of information.


There are no record keeping, capital, start-up or maintenance costs associated with this information collection.

14. Provide estimates of annualized cost to the Federal Government. Also provide a description of the method used to estimate cost, which should include quantification of hours, operational expenses (such as equipment overhead, printing, and support staff), and any other expense that would not have been incurred without this collection of information.


The estimated annual cost to the Federal Government associated with the review of these records is $1,394,400. This is based on the number of responses (200,000) that must be reviewed (x) the time to review and process each response (.166 hours) = 33,200 hours (x) the average hourly rate ($42.00) = $1,394,400.


15. Explain the reasons for any program changes or adjustments reported in Items 12 or 13.


There has been no increase or decrease in the estimated annual burden hours previously reported for this information collection. There is no change to the information collected or to CBP Form 6043.


16. For collection of information whose results will be published, outline plans for tabulation, and publication.


This information collection will not be published for statistical purposes.


17. If seeking approval to not display the expiration date, explain the reasons that displaying the expiration date would be inappropriate.

CBP will display the expiration date for OMB approval of this information collection.

18. “Certification for Paperwork Reduction Act Submissions.”

CBP does not request an exception to the certification of this information collection.
