Overview of This Information Collection

    Title: Entry/Immediate Delivery Application and ACE Cargo Release.
    OMB Number: 1651-0024.
    Form Number: 3461 and 3461 ALT.
    Current Actions: This submission is being made to extend the 
expiration date with a change in the data collected. There is an 
increase to the annual burden hours based on updated agency estimates. 
Since the last OMB Renewal there have been two submissions for a Non 
Substantive Change for this information collection. The Non Substantive 
Changes made are the following:
    Change one submitted on February 22, 2018: CBP is submitting this 
Non Substantive Change to OMB to reflect a change in the Harmonized 
Tariff Schedule (HTS) which is maintained by the U.S. International 
Trade Commission (USITC). HTS data is provided to CBP at entry.
    Effective February 7, 2018, the following changes to the Harmonized 
Tariff Schedule for units of quantity reporting will take effect:
     For HTS 8450.90.20 and 8450.90.60, certain parts of 
washing machines, the new unit of quantity will be ``No.'' instead of 
``X''.

[[Page 16896]]

     For HTS 8541.40.6030, solar cells, a second unit of 
quantity, ``W'' (for total wattage), will be added.
     For statistical reporting purposes under subheading 
8541.40.6030, importers should report the total watts at maximum power 
based on standard test conditions according to the latest revision of 
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 60904, ``Photovoltaic 
Devices.''
     These modifications will take effect as announced in 
Presidential Proclamations 9693 (83 FR 3541) and 9694 (83 FR 3553), of 
January 23, 2018.
    For additional information regarding the HTS please follow this 
link: https://hts.usitc.gov/current
    Change two submitted on March 19, 2018: CBP is submitting this Non 
Substantive change to reflect an adjustment in ACE Cargo due to U.S. 
Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) for 
Procedures for Submitting Requests for Exclusions from the Section 232 
National Security Adjustments of Imports of Steel and Aluminum 
information collection. Importers who have submitted for exclusion from 
Section 232 shall submit the BIS exclusion number in the additional 
importer declaration field. This collection is authorized by 15 CFR 
705, https://www.thefederalregister.org/fdsys/pkg/CFR-2016-title15-vol2/pdf/CFR-2016-title15-vol2-part705.pdf
    Type of Review: Extension and Revision (with change)
    Abstract: All items imported into the United States are subject to 
examination before entering the commerce of the United States. There 
are two procedures available to effect the release of imported 
merchandise, including ``entry'' pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1484, and 
``immediate delivery'' pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1448(b). Under both 
procedures, CBP Forms 3461, Entry/Immediate Delivery, and 3461 ALT are 
the source documents in the packages presented to Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP). The information collected on CBP Forms 3461 and 3461 
ALT allow CBP officers to verify that the information regarding the 
consignee and shipment is correct and that a bond is on file with CBP. 
CBP also uses these forms to close out the manifest and to establish 
the obligation to pay estimated duties in the time period prescribed by 
law or regulation. CBP Form 3461 is also a delivery authorization 
document and is given to the importing carrier to authorize the release 
of the merchandise.
    CBP Forms 3461 and 3461 ALT are provided for by 19 CFR 141 and 142. 
These forms and instructions for Form 3461 are accessible at: http://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms
    ACE Cargo Release is a program for ACE entry summary filers in 
which importers or brokers may file Simplified Entry data in lieu of 
filing the CBP Form 3461. This data consists of 12 required elements: 
Importer of record; buyer name and address; buyer employer 
identification number (consignee number), seller name and address; 
manufacturer/supplier name and address; Harmonized Tariff Schedule 10-
digit number; country of origin; bill of lading; house air waybill 
number; bill of lading issuer code; entry number; entry type; and 
estimated shipment value. Three optional data elements are the 
container stuffing location; consolidator name and address, and ship to 
party name and address. The data collected under the ACE Cargo Release 
program is intended to reduce transaction costs, expedite cargo 
release, and enhance cargo security. ACE Cargo Release filing minimizes 
the redundancy of data submitted by the filer to CBP through receiving 
carrier data from the carrier. This design allows the participants to 
file earlier in the transportation flow. Guidance on using ACE Cargo 
Release may be found at http://www.cbp.gov/trade/ace/features.
