collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act: 
Customs Modernization Act Recordkeeping Requirements. CBP is proposing

published to obtain comments from the public and affected agencies.

DATES: Written comments should be received on or before October 5, 2015 
to be assured of consideration.

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be mailed to U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection, Attn: Tracey Denning, Regulations and Rulings, Office of 
International Trade, 90 K Street NE., 10th Floor, Washington, DC 20229-

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CBP invites the general public and other 
Federal agencies to comment on proposed and/or continuing information 
collections pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 
104-13). The comments should address: (a) Whether the collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the agency, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimates of the burden of 
the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to 
minimize the burden including the use of automated collection

summarized and included in the CBP request for OMB approval. All 
comments will become a matter of public record. In this document, CBP 
is soliciting comments concerning the following information collection:
    Title: Customs Modernization Act Recordkeeping Requirements.
    OMB Number: 1651-0076.
    Abstract: The North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation 
Act, Title VI, known as the Customs Modernization Act (Mod Act) amended 
title 19 U.S.C. 1508, 1509 and 1510 by revising Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) laws related to recordkeeping, examination of books 
and witnesses, regulatory audit procedures and judicial enforcement. 
Specifically, the Mod Act expanded the list of parties subject to CBP 
recordkeeping requirements; distinguished between records which pertain 
to the entry of merchandise and financial records needed to 
substantiate the correctness of information contained in entry 
documentation; and identified a list of records which must be 
maintained and produced upon request by CBP. The information and 
records are used by CBP to verify the accuracy of the claims made on 
the entry documents regarding the tariff status of imported 
merchandise, admissibility, classification/nomenclature, value and rate 
of duty applicable to the entered goods. The Mod Act record keeping 
requirements are provided for by 19 CFR 163 and instructions are 
available at: http://www.cbp.gov/document/publications/recordkeeping.
    Current Action: 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 (with no change).
    Affected Public: Businesses.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 5,459.
    Estimated Number of Total Annual Responses: 5,459.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1,040 hours.
