Foreign Agricultural Service

    Title: Certificate for Quota Eligibility (CQE).
    OMB Control Number: 0551-0014.
    Summary of Collection: Imports of raw cane sugar are subject to a 
tariff-rate import quota (TRQ) that is allocated on a country-by-
country basis to foreign countries or areas. A U.S. certificate for 
quota eligibility (CQE) issued by USDA and authenticated by a 
certifying authority in the foreign country permits entry of raw cane 
sugar under the TRQ. U.S. Note 5 (a)(i) of the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United State requires the Secretary to establish a TRQ 
for raw-cane sugar (entered under HTS 1701.12.10 and 1701.14.10) during 
each fiscal year with a minimum TRQ amount of 1,117,195 metric tons, 
raw value. In Addition 5 (b)(1) authorizes the U.S. Trade 
Representative to allocate the raw-cane sugar tariff-rate quota among 
supplying countries. CQEs are issued to the 40 countries that receive 
TRQ allocations to export sugar to the United State. The CQE is 
completed by the certifying authority in the foreign country that 
certifies that the sugar being exported to the United States was 
produced in the foreign country that has the TRQ allocation. The 
Foreign Agriculture will collect information using form FAS-961.
    Need and Use of the Information: FAS will collect the following 
information: (1) Country of origin or area of the eligible raw cane 
sugar; (2) quota period; (3) quantity of raw cane sugar to be exported; 
(4) details of the shipment (shipper, vessel, port of loading); and (5) 
additional details if available at the time of shipment (consignee, 
address of consignee, expected date of departure, expected date of 
arrival in the U.S., expected port of arrival). The information will 
help determine if the quantity to be imported is eligible to be entered 
under the TRQ. Without the CQEs, USDA/FAS and CBP could not

administer the raw cane sugar TRQs authorized under U.S. law.
    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents: 40.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
    Total Burden Hours: 519.
