The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is seeking public input on an information collection concerning duty-free entry for returned American products. The collection involves CBP Form 3311, used by businesses to claim duty-free treatment for goods that meet specific criteria, including being of U.S. growth, production, and manufacture, and returning to the U.S. without being improved abroad. This request is part of a 60-day notice for extension, with no changes to the information collected or method of collection, and comments are due by February 18, 2025. The proposed collection has an estimated 12,000 respondents submitting 420,000 responses annually with each response taking about 6 minutes.
Simple Explanation
The government wants to hear what people think about a form that businesses use to bring back American-made things without paying extra fees. They want to know if there's anything that could be made better, and people have until February 2025 to tell them.
