Individuals in the United States who are
deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing, or have
a speech disability may dial 711 (TTY,
TDD, or TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.) and its implementing regulations
at 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), all information
collections require approval under the
PRA. We may not conduct or sponsor
and you are not required to respond to
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) control
number.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology (e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response).
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before
including your address, phone number,
email address, or other personal
identifying information in your

be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Abstract: The Endangered Species Act
(ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) makes it
unlawful to import or export wildlife or
wildlife products for commercial
purposes without first obtaining an
import/export license (see 16 U.S.C.
1538(d)). The ESA also requires that fish
or wildlife be imported into or exported
from the United States only at a
designated port, or at a nondesignated
port under certain limited
circumstances (see 16 U.S.C. 1538(f)).
This information collection includes the
following permit/license application
forms:
Form 3–200–2, ‘‘Designated Port
Exception Permit’’
Under 50 CFR 14.11, it is unlawful to
import or export wildlife or wildlife
products at ports other than those
designated in 50 CFR 14.12, unless you
qualify for an exception. The following
exceptions allow qualified individuals,
businesses, or scientific organizations to
import or export wildlife or wildlife
products at a nondesignated port:
(a) To export the wildlife or wildlife
products for scientific purposes;
(b) To minimize deterioration or loss;
or
(c) To relieve economic hardship.
To request authorization to import or
export wildlife or wildlife products at
nondesignated ports, applicants must
complete Form 3–200–2. Designated
port exception permits can be valid for
up to 2 years. We may require a
permittee to file a report on activities
conducted under authority of the
permit.
Forms 3–200–3a, ‘‘Federal Fish and
Wildlife Permit Application Form:
Import/Export License—U.S. Entities,’’
and 3–200–3b, ‘‘Federal Fish and
Wildlife Permit Application Form:
Import/Export License—Foreign
Entities’’ (Paper and Electronic)
It is unlawful to import or export
wildlife or wildlife products for
commercial purposes without first
obtaining an import/export license (50
CFR 14.91). Applicants located in the
United States must complete Form 3–
200–3a to request this license. Foreign
applicants that reside or are located
outside the United States must complete
Form 3–200–3b to request this license.

Forms 3–200–3a and 3–200–3b as an

wildlife and wildlife products. Import/
export licenses are valid for up to 1
year. We may require a licensee to file
a report on activities conducted under
authority of the import/export license.

believe the burden associated with these
recordkeeping requirements is minimal
because the records already exist.
Importers and exporters must
complete Form 3–177 (Declaration for
Importation or Exportation of Fish or
Wildlife) for all imports or exports of
wildlife or wildlife products. This form
provides an accurate description of the
imports and exports. OMB has approved
the information collection for Form 3–

should produce records (e.g., invoices or
bills of sale) needed to document
additional sales or transfers of the
wildlife or wildlife products.
Generally, we do not require
individuals and government entities to
submit a report on activities conducted
under the authority of a designated port

basis, we may require entities to provide
a report on activities conducted under a
designated port exception permit or an
