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 F-6 (17 CFR 239.36) is a form used by foreign companies to register the offer and
sale of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et
seq.). Form F-6 requires disclosure of information regarding the terms of the depository bank,
fees charged, and a description of the ADRs. No special information regarding the foreign
company is required to be prepared or disclosed, although the foreign company must be one
which periodically furnishes information to the Commission. The information is needed to
ensure that investors in ADRs have full disclosure of information concerning the deposit
agreement and the foreign company. Form F-6 takes approximately 1.35 hours per response to
prepare and is filed by 366 respondents annually. We estimate that 25% of the 1.35 hours per
response (0.338 hours) is prepared by the filer for a total annual reporting burden of 124 hours
(0.338 hours per response x 366 responses). The information provided on Form F-6 is mandatory

to best ensure full disclosure of ADRs being issued in the U.S. All information provided to the
Commission is available for public review upon request.
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 background documentation for this information collection at the
following website: www.reginfo.gov. Find this particular information collection by selecting
“Currently under 30-day Review - Open for Public Comments” or by using the search function.
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this notice by [INSERT DATE 30 DAYS AFTER DATE OF
PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER] to (i) www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain
and (ii) David Bottom, Director/Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange
Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549, or by sending an
email to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.
Dated: June 21, 2024.

Secretary.
