PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT: A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of
the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information displays a current valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Number for this information collection is 2127-0002. The information collected on this form is necessary to obtain a letter from NHTSA
acknowledging that a vehicle was not primarily manufactured for use on public streets, roads, and highways, and is therefore not a motor vehicle subject to the Federal motor vehicle safety standards. The information is used to verify that the vehicle is eligible to be
imported on this basis. We estimate that it will take approximately 5 minutes to complete the form. The information collected is necessary to obtain a benefit under 49 CFR 591.5(e). Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection
of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to: Information Collection Clearance Officer, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Ave, S.E., Room W45-205, Washington, DC, 20590.
