“Tobacco User Fees”
(OMB Control Number 0910-0749)
The Food and Drug Administration/Center for Tobacco Products is submitting this report to comply with the OMB terms of clearance of July 10, 2014.
According to the Notice of Action, FDA will report to OIRA on a quarterly basis beginning October 1, 2014, regarding the progress of meetings with TTB and CBP on 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 continues to meet with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) to discuss the feasibility of eliminating the need of the subject data collection from the tobacco industry via a data sharing agreement which the FDA could utilize TTB information to calculate and assess tobacco product user fees.
The Border Interagency Executive Council (BIEC) has directed that each agency review all of their current data collection requirements for streamlining. The Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and TTB are a part of this effort. The FDA is currently working with the CBP’s Interagency Collaboration Division to establish a data sharing agreement via a Letter of Exchange between both parties to support the Tobacco User Fee program; CTP is interested in and working towards participating in discussions regarding the data streamline effort between the TTB and CBP, as the FDA relies on both Agency’s to fully support the Tobacco User Fee program.
