Title: Tobacco Products, User Fees, Requirements for the Submission of Data Needed to Calculate User Fees for Domestic Manufacturers and Importers of Tobacco Products
Type of Information Collection: New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 07/10/2014
	Date Received in OIRA: 07/10/2014
Terms of Clearance: The data to be collected under this ICR overlaps with collections of excise tax and import information by Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). However, the TTB and CBP data cannot currently be used by FDA for calculating user fees due to both logistical reasons and restrictions on the use of excise tax information that could be provided to FDA directly by TTB. FDA has had meetings with TTB about establishing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with TTB to receive information directly from TTB regarding tobacco permit holders and excise tax payments. FDA will work with TTB and CBP to further develop means for the sharing of information that FDA could use to calculate and assess tobacco product user fees. This purpose of FDA’s collaboration with TTB and CBP is to explore whether it would be possible, in light of current legal restrictions on the use of individual taxpayer information, for FDA to rely solely on data received from TTB and CBP and thus eliminate the need for this information collection. FDA will report to OIRA on a quarterly basis beginning October 1, 2014, regarding the progress of these meetings until a resolution is reached, which shall be accomplished no later than July 1, 2016.

Abstract: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing a proposed rule that would require domestic tobacco product manufacturers and importers to submit information needed to calculate the amount of user fees assessed under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act). The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has been collecting this information and providing FDA with the data FDA needs to calculate the amount of user fees assessed to tobacco product manufacturers and importers. USDA intends to cease collecting this information in fiscal year 2015 (October 2014). Consistent with the requirements of the FD&C Act, FDA is proposing to require the submission of this information to FDA instead of USDA. FDA is taking this action to ensure that FDA continues to have the information FDA needs to calculate, assess, and collect user fees.
