Annual cigarette ingredient reporting
If you are a commercial cigarette manufacturer, packager, or importer, you must submit an annual list of all ingredients used in your cigarette products to HHS/CDC by March 31 each year. The list must use chemical names and Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) Registration Numbers; after CDC verifies a submission it issues a Certificate of Compliance. Submissions are accepted only by mail or fax (faxed lists must be followed by a mailed original).
Time burden and OMB approval request
CDC estimates the total annualized burden for this information collection is 358 hours across 55 business respondents, which averages 6.5 hours per respondent per year. CDC requests OMB approval for three years and states there are no costs to respondents other than their time.
