BE-9: Quarterly Survey of Foreign Airline Operators' Revenues and 
Expenses in the United States

AGENCY: Bureau of Economic Analysis, Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of reporting requirements.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: By this Notice, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), 
Department of Commerce is informing the public that it is conducting 
the mandatory survey titled Quarterly Survey of Foreign Airline 
Operators' Revenues and Expenses in the United States (BE-9). This 
survey is authorized by the International Investment and Trade in 
Services Survey Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This Notice constitutes legal notification 
to all United States persons (defined below) who meet the reporting 
requirements set forth in this Notice that they must respond to, and 
comply with, the survey. Reports are due 45 days after the end of each 
calendar quarter. This notice is being issued in conformance with the 
rule BEA issued in 2012 (77 FR 24373) establishing guidelines for 
collecting data on international trade in services and direct 
investment through notices, rather than through rulemaking. Additional 
information about BEA's collection of data on international trade in 
services and direct investment can be found in the 2012 rule, the 
International Investment and Trade in Services Survey Act (22 U.S.C. 
3101 et seq.), and 15 CFR part 801. Survey data on international trade 
in services and direct investment that are not collected pursuant to 
the 2012 rule are described separately in 15 CFR part 801. The BE-9 
survey forms and instructions are available on the BEA Web site at 
www.bea.gov/ssb.

Definitions

    (a) Person means any individual, branch, partnership, associated 
group, association, estate, trust, corporation, or other organization 
(whether or not organized under the laws of any State), and any 
government (including a foreign government, the United States 
Government, a State or local government, and any agency, corporation, 
financial institution, or other entity or instrumentality thereof, 
including a government-sponsored agency).
    (b) United States person means any person resident in the United 
States or subject to the jurisdiction of the United States.
    (c) United States, when used in a geographic sense, means the 50 
States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and 
all territories and possessions of the United States.
    (d) Foreign person means any person resident outside the United 
States or subject to the jurisdiction of a country other than the 
United States.

Reporting

    Who Must Report: (a) Reports are required from U.S. offices, 
agents, or other representatives of foreign airline operators that 
transport passengers or freight and express to or from the United 
States and whose total covered revenues or total covered expenses were 
$5,000,000 or more during the previous year, or are expected to be 
$5,000,000 or more during the current year. Because the thresholds are 
applied separately to sales and purchases, the reporting requirements 
may apply only to sales, only to purchases, or to both sales and 
purchases.
    (b) Entities required to report will be contacted individually by 
BEA. Entities not contacted by BEA have no reporting responsibilities.
    What To Report: The survey collects information on foreign airline 
operators' revenues and expenses in the United States.
    How To Report: Reports can be filed using BEA's electronic 
reporting system at www.bea.gov/efile. Copies of the survey forms and 
instructions, which contain complete information on reporting 
procedures and definitions, may be obtained at the BEA Web site given 
above. Form BE-9 inquiries can be made by phone to BEA at (202) 606-
5588 or by sending an email to be9help@bea.gov.
    When To Report: Reports are due to BEA 45 days after the end of 
each calendar quarter.

Paperwork Reduction Act Notice

and Budget (OMB) in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act and 
assigned control number 0608-0068. An agency may not conduct or

information unless it displays a valid control number assigned by OMB.

Department of Commerce, Washington, DC 20230; and to the Office of
