Food Safety and Inspection Service *Title:* Importation and Transportation of Meat, Poultry and Egg Products. *OMB Control Number:* 0583-0094. *Summary of Collection:* The Food Safety and Inspection Service
(FSIS)has been delegated the authority to exercise the functions of the Secretary as provided in the Federal Meat Inspection Act
(FMIA)(21 U.S.C. 601 *et seq.* ) and the Poultry Products Inspection Act
(PPIA)(21 U.S.C. 451 *et seq.* ), and the Egg Products Inspection Act
(EPIA)(21 U.S.C. 1031, *et seq.* ) These statutes mandate that FSIS protect the public by ensuring that meat, poultry, and egg products are safe, wholesome, unadulterated, and properly labeled and packaged. Meat and poultry products not marked with the mark of inspection and shipped from one official establishment to another for further processing must be transported under FSIS seal to prevent such unmarked product from` entering commerce. To track product shipped under seal, FSIS requires shipping establishments to complete a form that identifies the type, amount, and weight of the product. Foreign countries that wish to export meat, poultry, and egg products to the United States must establish eligibility to do so by putting in place inspection systems that are “equivalent to” the U.S. inspection system (9 CFR 327.2 and 381.196) and by annually certifying that they continue to do so. *Need and Use of the Information:* FSIS will collect information using form 7350-1, Request and Notice of Shipment of Sealed Meat/Poultry. FSIS will collect the name, number, method of shipping, and destination of product, type and description of product to be shipped, reason for shipping product, and a signature. Meat, poultry, and egg products intended for importation into the U.S. must be accompanied by an inspection certificate signed by an official of the foreign government responsible for the inspection and certification of the product. *Description of Respondents:* Business or other for-profit. *Number of Respondents:* 136. *Frequency of Responses:* Recordkeeping; Reporting: On occasion. *Total Burden Hours:* 4,026.
