These standards specify physical requirements for the VIN and its installation format and content to simplify information retrieval and increase the efficiency of defect recall campaigns and identify likely high theft vehicles.

When it last sought approval for this information collection, the agency projected that it would cost industry $13,348,000.to comply with the labelling and reporting requirements of Parts 565 and 567. This was based on the assumption that it would take a manufacturer one minute to affix the certification label to a vehicle and that there would be 14.2 million vehicles labelled in this fashion per year. We have adjusted the time needed to label each vehicle from one to three minutes to also account for the time needed to assemble the information to be included on the label and to print the label before it is affixed to the vehicle. Additionally, the vehicle count has been reduced to 12,000,000 vehicles per year to better reflect e actual sales figures for the U.S. portion of the North American market over the past three years. In its last request for approval of this information collection, the agency also estimated that it would take a manufacturer 10 hours to assemble the VIN-deciphering information needed to be submitted under Part 565, and that such information would be submitted by 1,104 manufacturers per year. The current estimate is based on the assumption that it would take the typical manufacturer one hour to assemble the required information. This reduced estimate takes into account the fact that most manufacturers submitting VIN-deciphering information to the agency are small manufacturers of vehicles such as trailers, and that these manufacturers do not produce an extensive range of vehicles, as the major automotive companies do. As a consequence, the prior estimate of the time that would need to be expended by the great majority of companies that submit Part 565 VIN-deciphering information to the agency was greatly in excess of what is estimated to be needed at the present time. In addition, the agency has prepared and disseminated comprehensive guidance to members of the industry on how to configure VINs and how to report VIN-deciphering information to the agency, reducing the time that would need to be expended in meeting the reporting requirement. Finally, the current estimate is based on the agency's assumption that it would receive 562 Part 565 submissions per year, as opposed to the 1,104 submission estimated in the prior request for approval. The current figure was reached by taking the average of the approximate number of Part 565 submissions made in each of the past three years (650 submission in 2011, 500 in 2012, and 475 in 2013; 650+500+475=1,625; 1,625/3=542). The prior request for approval also stated that there is no annualized cost to the Federal Government for the information collections associated with Parts 565 and 567, as the labelling requirements are met by motor vehicle manufacturers and there is no exchange of correspondence, tabulation of data or response necessary from the agency. This failed to take account of the fact that manufacturers do submit VIN-deciphering information to the agency under Part 565, and the review and processing of that information does consume agency resources.
