The cover sheet (Form FDA 3546) is
designed to collect the minimum necessary information to determine
whether a fee is required for the review of an application or
supplement or whether an application fee waiver was granted, to
determine the amount of the fee required, and to assure that each
animal drug user fee payment is appropriately linked to the animal
drug application for which payment is made. The form, when
completed electronically, will result in the generation of a unique
payment identification number used by FDA to track the payment.
FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine and FDA’s Office of Financial
Management will use the information collected to initiate the
administrative screening of new animal drug applications and
supplements to determine whether payment has been
received.
