DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Bureau of Industry and Security


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of 
information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 
U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Agency: Bureau of Industry and Security.
    Title: License Exemptions and Exclusions.
    Form Number: N/A.
    OMB Control Number: 0694-0137.
    Type of Review: Regular submission.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 29,998.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 19,738.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1.52 hours.
    Needs and Uses: Over the years, BIS has worked with other 
Government agencies and the affected public to identify areas where 
export licensing requirements may be relaxed without jeopardizing U.S. 
national security or foreign policy. Many of these relaxations have 
taken the form of licensing exceptions and exclusions. Some of these 
license exceptions and exclusions have a reporting or recordkeeping 
requirement to enable the Government to continue to monitor exports of 
these items. Exporters may choose to utilize the license exception and 
accept the reporting or recordkeeping burden in lieu of submitting a 
license application. These exceptions and exclusions have allow 
exporters to ship items quickly, without having to wait for license 
approval.
    These collections are designed to reduce export licensing burden. 
It is up to the individual company to decide whether it is most 
advantageous to continue to submit license applications or to comply 
with the reporting or recordkeeping requirements and take advantage of 
the licensing exception or exclusion.
    Affected Public: Non-profit institutions; State, local, or tribal 
government; business or other for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: On Occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    This information collection request may be viewed at reginfo.gov 
http://www.reginfo.gov/public/. Follow the instructions to view 
Department of Commerce collections currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to [email protected].
