public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed, and continuing

Agency: Bureau of Industry and
Security, Commerce.
Title: Import, End-User, Delivery
Verification Certificates and Firearms
Entry Clearance Requirements.
OMB Control Number: 0694–0093.
Form Number(s): BIS–645P, BIS–
647P.
Type of Request: Regular submission,
extension of a current information
collection.
Number of Respondents: 11,776.
Average Hours per Response: 1 to 30
minutes.
Burden Hours: 1,630.
Needs and Uses: This collection of
information addresses three activities:
(1) Import Certificates/End Use
Certificates, (2) Delivery Verification,
and (3) Firearms Entry Clearance
Requirements.
Import Certificates or End-User
Certificates (IC/EUC)—The IC/EUC,
BIS–645P, is obtained by the foreign
importer and transmitted to the U.S.
exporter. They are issued by the
government of the country of ultimate
destination to exercise legal control over
the disposition of the items covered by
the IC/EUC. The control exercised by
the government issuing the IC/EUC is in
addition to the conditions and
restrictions placed on the transaction by
BIS.
Delivery Verification—The Delivery
Verification Certificate (DV) is required
by BIS as part of its export control
program. The license holder is
responsible for having the ultimate
consignee complete the BIS–647P,
Delivery Verification Certificate Form
when the goods are delivered. BIS uses
the DV procedure on an ‘‘as needed’’
basis. The DV is usually required when
there is suspicion of violation of the
EAR. Therefore, if the exporter cannot
supply the DV, BIS must be notified to
determine if an exception is legitimate.
Otherwise, the exporter would be in
violation of the EAR.
Firearms Entry Clearance
Requirements—On January 23, 2020,
The Department of Commerce issued a
final rule that described how articles the
President determines no longer warrant
control under the United States
Munitions List (USML) Category I—
Firearms, Close Assault Weapons and
Combat Shotguns; Category II—Guns
and Armament; and Category III—
Ammunition/Ordnance would be
controlled under the Commerce Control
List (CCL). This final rule, which
became effective on March 9, 2020, was
published in conjunction with a final
rule on Categories I, II, and III from the
Department of State, Directorate of
Defense Trade Controls (DDTC).
This entry clearance requirement is
necessary due to the changes by the
President in determining that certain
items no longer warrant control under
United States Munitions List (USML)
Category I—Firearms, Close Assault
Weapons and Combat Shotguns;
Category II—Guns and Armament; and
Category III—Ammunition/Ordnance
would be controlled under the
Commerce Control List (CCL). As the
State Department previously collected
this same type of information, the
Department of Commerce controls the
CCL and must now take over this
collection of information. Section
758.10 Entry clearance requirements for
temporary imports will specify the EAR
procedures for temporary imports and
subsequent exports.
Affected Public: Business or other for-
profit organizations.
Frequency: On Occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: §§ 748.9, 748.10,
748.12, 748.14, Part 748 Supplement
No. 5, 758.10, 762.5(d), 762.6,
764.2(g)(2), and of the Export
Administration Regulations (EAR).
