SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-156, OMB Control No. 3235-0288]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 
20549-2736

Extension:
    Form 20-F

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget this request for extension of the previously approved 
collection of information discussed below.
    Form 20-F (17 CFR 249.220f) is used to register securities of 
foreign private issuers pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities 
Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act'') (15 U.S.C. 78l) or as annual 
and transitional reports pursuant to Sections 13 and 15(d) of the 
Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78m(a) and 78o(d)). The information required in 
the Form 20-F is used by investors in making investment decisions with 
respect to the securities of such foreign private issuers. We estimate 
that Form 20-F takes approximately 2,649.52 hours per response and is 
filed by approximately 725 respondents. We estimate that 25% of the 
2,649.52 hours per response (662.3806 hours) is prepared by the issuer 
for a total reporting burden of 480,226 (662.3806 hours per response x 
725 responses).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid control number.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following website, www.reginfo.gov. 
Comments should be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to: 
[email protected]; and (ii) Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Candace 
Kenner, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to: 
[email protected]. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 days 
of this notice.

    Dated: June 28, 2018.
Eduardo A. Aleman,
Assistant Secretary.
