Terms of Clearance:
Approved through August 1996 with the understanding that Customs will submit to OMB with the next request for extention of this clearance: 1) a plan, including a projeced time frame, for automation by Customs of the collection, use, and interagency sharing of commercial invoice data, 2) an explanation of how the automated commercial invoice will be integrated into the design for the governmentwide International Trade Data System under development by the Office of International Trade Data Exchange (INTRADEX), and 3) projections of the anticipated reduction in information collection burdens resulting from the elimination of collections duplicative with automated commercial data. Moreover, in coordination with the North American Trade Automation Prototype (NATAP) scheduled for September1996, the Federal Register notice of the request for extention of OMB approval should solicit public comment on using commercial documents as the basis for processing the port clearance of international trade transactions at the border. Finally, estimates of respondent costs should be provided to meet the requirements of the 1995 PRA. These estimates should be updated as better informaiton is received.
