SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Report of Cash Payments Over 

$10,000 Received in a Trade or 

Business. 

OMB Numbers: 1545–0892 (IRS) and 

1506–0018 (FinCEN). 

Form Number: 8300. 

Abstract: Internal Revenue Code 

section 6050I requires any person in a 

trade or business who, in the course of 

the trade or business, receives more 

than $10,000 in cash or foreign currency 

in one or more related transactions to 

report it to the IRS and provide a 

statement to the payer. Form 8300 is 

used for this purpose. 

Section 365 of the USA Patriot Act of 

2001 (Pub. L. 107–56), adding new 

section 5331 to title 31 of the United 

States Code, authorized the Financial 

Crimes Enforcement Network to collect 

the information reported on Form 8300. 

In a joint effort to develop a dual use 

form, IRS and FinCEN worked together 

to ensure that the transmission of the 

data collected to FinCEN on Forms 8300 

does not violate the provisions of 

section 6103. FinCEN makes the Forms 

8300 available to law enforcement 

through its Bank Secrecy Act 

information sharing agreements. 

Current Actions: There are no changes 

being made to the form at this time. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations, farms, and the 

Federal government. 

Frequency: As required. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

46,800. 

Estimated Time per Respondent: 1 hr., 

22 min. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 63,539 1. 

The following paragraph applies to all 

of the collections of information covered 

by this notice: 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

unless the collection of information 

displays a valid OMB control number. 

Books or records relating to a collection 

of information must be retained as long 

as their contents may become material 

in the administration of any internal 

revenue law. Generally, tax returns and 

tax return information are confidential, 

as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103. 

In accordance with 31 CFR 

103.30(e)(3) a person required to make 

a report under this section must keep a 

copy of each report filed for five years 

from the date of filing. 

Request for Comments: Comments 

submitted in response to this notice will 

be summarized and/or included in the 

request for OMB approval. All 

comments will become a matter of 

public record. Comments are invited on: 

(a) Whether the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate 

of the burden of the collection of 

information; (c) ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; (d) ways to 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

information on respondents, including 

through the use of automated collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology; and (e) estimates of capital
