    Title: Declaration of Person Who Performed Repairs
    OMB Number: 1651-0048
    Form Number: None
    Abstract: The ``Declaration of Persons Who Performed Repairs or 
Alterations,'' as required by 19 CFR 10.8, is used in connection with 
the entry of articles entered under subheadings 9802.00.40 and 
9802.00.50, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). 
Articles entered under these HTSUS provisions are articles that were in 
the U.S. and were exported temporarily for repairs. Upon their return, 
duty is only assessed on the value of the repairs performed abroad and

includes information such as a description of the article and the 
repairs; the value of the article and the repairs; and a declaration by 
the owner, importer, consignee, or agent having knowledge of the 
pertinent facts. The information in this declaration is used by CBP to 
determine the value of the repairs and assess duty only on the value of 
those repairs.
    Current Actions: CBP proposes to extend the expiration date of this 
information collection with no change to the burden hours or to the 
information collected.
    Type of Review: Extension (without change).
