The Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT)is a Program that provides expedited processing of repetitive entries of merchandise at high-risk locations by prescreening shippers and carriers who chose to participate in this Program. CBP proposes to establish a collection of information related to C-TPAT for a new program known as the Trusted Trader Program.

The burden hours for C-TPAT were increased due to the increase in time per response from 5 hours to 20 hours. This increase was a result of suggestions from public comments that CBP received. Burden hours were also added for the new Trusted Trader Application and Trusted Trader Annual Notification Letter.
