    Overview of this information collection:
    1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a previously 
approved collection.

[[Page 47910]]

    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Federal Firearms License (FFL) 
Renewal Application.
    3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection: Form number: ATF Form 8 
(5310.11) Part II. Component: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and 
Explosives, U.S. Department of Justice.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as the obligation to respond: Affected Public: Business or other 
for-profit, Individuals or households. The obligation to respond is 
mandatory. The statutory requirements are implemented in Title 18 
U.S.C. section, Chapter 44.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An estimated 
33,500 respondents will complete this form once annually, and it will 
take each respondent approximately 30 minutes to complete their 
responses.
    6. An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The estimated annual public burden associated with 
this collection is 16,750 hours, which is equal to 33,500 (total 
respondents) * 1 (# of response per respondent) * .5 (20 minutes).
    7. An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the 
collection, if applicable: There is no annualized capital/startup cost 
associated with this collection. However, the annual cost has increased 
due to a change in the postal rate from $0.55 during the last renewal 
in 2019, to $0.63 in 2023. Consequently, the new public cost burden 
will be reported as $21,105.00, which is equal to $0.63 (mailing cost 
per respondent) * 33,500 (# of respondents).
