SURVEY INFORMATION
Purpose: This survey collects data on the acquisition or establishment of U.S. business enterprises by foreign investors and the expansion of existing
U.S. affiliates of foreign companies to establish a new production facility. The data collected on the survey are used to measure the amount of new
foreign direct investment in the United States, assess the impact on the U.S. economy, and based on this assessment, make informed policy decisions
regarding foreign direct investment in the United States.
Authority: This survey is being conducted under the International Investment and Trade in Services Survey Act (P.L. 94-472, 90 Stat. 2059, 22 U.S.C.
3101-3108, as amended), hereinafter “the Act”, and the filing of reports is MANDATORY pursuant to Section 5(b)(2) of the Act (22 U.S.C. 3104). The
implementing regulations are contained in 15 CFR Part 801.
Penalties: Whoever fails to report may be subject to a civil penalty of not less than $4,450, and not more than $44,539, and to injunctive relief
commanding such person to comply, or both. Whoever willfully fails to report shall be fined not more than $10,000 and, if an individual, may be
imprisoned for not more than one year, or both. Any officer, director, employee, or agent of any corporation who knowingly participates in such violation,
upon conviction, may be punished by a like fine, imprisonment, or both (22 U.S.C. 3105). Civil penalties are subject to inflationary adjustments. Those
adjustments are found in 15 CFR 6.4.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with,
a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that collection of information displays a currently valid
OMB Control Number.
Respondent burden: Public reporting burden for this BE-13D form is estimated to average 1.2 hours per response, including time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.
Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing burden, to:
Director, Bureau of Economic Analysis (BE-1), U.S. Department of Commerce, 4600 Silver Hill Road, Washington, DC 20233; and to the Office of
Management and Budget, Paperwork Reduction Project 0608-0035, Washington, DC 20503.
Confidentiality: The Act provides that your report to this Bureau is CONFIDENTIAL and may be used only for analytical or statistical purposes.
Without your prior written permission, the information filed in our report CANNOT be presented in a manner that allows it to be individually identified.
Your report CANNOT be used for purposes of taxation, investigation, or regulation. Copies retained in your files are immune from legal process.
