the quantity, value and description of the imported merchandise. The 
declaration is made by the person who performed the assembly operations 
abroad and it includes an endorsement by the importer. The Foreign 
Assembler's Declaration is used by CBP to determine whether the 
operations performed are within the purview of subheading 9802.00.80, 
HTSUS and therefore eligible for preferential tariff treatment.

maintain records for 5 years from the date of the related entry and

this regulation are posted on the CBP.gov Web site at: http://www.cbp.gov/trade/trade-community/outreach-programs/trade-agreements/nafta/repairs-alterations/subchpt-9802.

information collection with no change to the burden hours or to the 
information collected.
