Abstract: In the guidance document, FDA requests tobacco health document submissions from manufacturers and importers of tobacco products based on the statutory requirements and compliance dates. As indicated in the guidance, all manufacturers and importers of tobacco products are required to provide immediate and ongoing submission of health documents developed after June 22, 2009. However, FDA generally does not intend to enforce the requirement at this time with respect to all such health documents, so long as a specified set of documents, those developed between June 23, 2009, and December 31, 2009, are provided at least 90 days prior to the delivery for introduction of tobacco products into interstate commerce. Thereafter, manufacturers should preserve all health documents, including those that relate to products for further manufacturing and those developed after December 31, 2009, for future submission to FDA. Respondents submit information through a facilitative electronic form or in paper form using Form FDA 3743. In both forms, FDA requests information including: submitter identification, submitter point of contact, submission format and contents (as applicable), confirmation statement, document categorization (as applicable), document readability and accessibility, and document metadata. The information collected will inform FDA's regulatory processes and decision making such as, development of good manufacturing practices, review standards for new tobacco products, and regulation of modified risk tobacco products, among others.

Short Statement: FDA has adjusted its burden estimates to remove the 200 hours that were associated with anticipated initial submission of health documents from NTN products, based on new authority provided by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022. This appropriations statute revised the FD&C Act to include language that made clear the FDA has the authority to regulate tobacco products containing nicotine from any source, which includes synthetic nicotine. Therefore, as of April 14, 2022, firms engaged in the manufacture, preparation, compounding, or processing of tobacco products containing NTN were required to provide health documents to FDA or provide a declaration that they do not have health documents via Form FDA 3743. Because the compliance period for NTN manufacturers to either submit health documents or provide the declaration has passed, FDA has removed the estimated annual burden associated with these tobacco product manufacturers (100 respondents and 200 hours). We now estimate the annual burden for this collection to be 1,600 hours.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $132,638
