the manufacture of personal and
household products. These records are
maintained at the premises of the
regulated individual and are routinely
inspected by TTB personnel during field
tax compliance examinations. These
examinations are necessary to verify
that all specially denatured spirits can
be accounted for and are being used
only for purposes authorized by laws
and regulations. By ensuring that spirits
have not been diverted to beverage use,
tax revenue and public safety are
protected. No additional recordkeeping
is imposed on the respondent, as this
information collection requires the

(IRC), imposes an occupational tax on
persons engaging in certain tobacco
businesses. Section 5731 of the IRC (26
U.S.C. 5731) requires persons to register
and/or pay a special occupational tax
before conducting business in certain
tobacco categories. TTB F 5630.5R is
used both to compute and report the tax
and as an application for registry as
required by statute. TTB F 5630.5R is
computer-generated by TTB with known
taxpayer identifying information (e.g.,
name, trade name, address, employer
identification number, etc.) along with
tax computations reflecting tax class(es),
number of business locations, tax
rate(s), and total tax due. The taxpayer
corrects or supplies any inaccurate or
incomplete information.

purposes only. The information
collection, estimated number of
respondents, and estimated total annual
burden hours remain unchanged.

currently approved collection.

400.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 100.

Allergens.
OMB Control Number: 1513–0121.
TTB REC or Form Number: None.
Abstract: The collection of
information involves voluntary labeling
of major food allergens used in the
production of alcohol beverages and
also involves petitions for exemption
from full allergen labeling. The
collection corresponds to the
amendments to the Food, Drug and
Cosmetics Act (FD&C Act) in Title II of
Public Law 108–282, 118 Stat. 905.
Current Actions: We are submitting
this information collection for extension
purposes only. The information

currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
500.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 730.
Title: Report of Removal, Transfer, or
Sale of Processed Tobacco.
OMB Number: 1513–0130.
TTB Form Number: 5250.2.
Abstract: Unregulated transfers or
sales of processed tobacco to persons
who do not hold TTB permits could
PO 00000
Frm 00143
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
20307
lead to processed tobacco falling into
the hands of persons who would be
unknown and unaccountable to TTB,
including illegal manufacturers. In order
to better regulate processed tobacco and
prevent diversion, TTB requires the
filing of a report covering all such
transfers or sales. This report is used to
protect the revenue.
Current Actions: We are submitting
this information collection as a revision.
We are revising TTB F 5250.2 to remove
two data elements which TTB has
determined to be no longer necessary.
The form instructions also are being
amended to reflect changes made to the
regulations by T.D. TTB–104, which
was published in the Federal Register
(77 FR 37287) on June 21, 2012.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit.
Estimated Number of Respondents:

Abstract: Denatured spirits are used for nonbeverage industrial
purposes in
[[Page 20307]]
the manufacture of personal and household products. These records are
maintained at the premises of the regulated individual and are
routinely inspected by TTB personnel during field tax compliance
examinations. These examinations are necessary to verify that all
specially denatured spirits can be accounted for and are being used
only for purposes authorized by laws and regulations. By ensuring that
spirits have not been diverted to beverage use, tax revenue and public
safety are protected. No additional recordkeeping is imposed on the
respondent, as this information collection requires the maintenance
only of the usual and customary business records of the regulated
individual.
Current Actions: We are submitting this information collection for
extension purposes only. The information collection, estimated number
of respondents, and estimated total annual burden hours remain
unchanged.

Abstract: TTB requires that tax-related information appear on
tobacco product packages and, in some cases, on shipping containers
used for tobacco products. TTB uses this information to ensure that the
tax is paid on tobacco products, and to ensure that products removed
without payment of tax for export are easily identifiable if diverted
into the domestic market.
Current Actions: We are submitting this information collection for
extension purposes only. The information collection, estimated number
of respondents, and estimated total annual burden hours remain
unchanged.

Title: Special Tax Renewal Registration and Return/Special Tax

OMB Number: 1513-0113.
TTB Form Number: 5630.5R.
Abstract: Chapter 52 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (IRC), imposes an occupational tax on persons engaging in
certain tobacco businesses. Section 5731 of the IRC (26 U.S.C. 5731)
requires persons to register and/or pay a special occupational tax
before conducting business in certain tobacco categories. TTB F 5630.5R
is used both to compute and report the tax and as an application for
registry as required by statute. TTB F 5630.5R is computer-generated by
TTB with known taxpayer identifying information (e.g., name, trade
name, address, employer identification number, etc.) along with tax
computations reflecting tax class(es), number of business locations,
tax rate(s), and total tax due. The taxpayer corrects or supplies any
inaccurate or incomplete information.
Current Actions: We are submitting this information collection for
extension purposes only. The information collection, estimated number
of respondents, and estimated total annual burden hours remain
unchanged.

Affected Public: Business or other for-profit.

Title: Report of Removal, Transfer, or Sale of Processed Tobacco.
OMB Number: 1513-0130.
TTB Form Number: 5250.2.
Abstract: Unregulated transfers or sales of processed tobacco to
persons who do not hold TTB permits could lead to processed tobacco
falling into the hands of persons who would be unknown and
unaccountable to TTB, including illegal manufacturers. In order to
better regulate processed tobacco and prevent diversion, TTB requires
the filing of a report covering all such transfers or sales. This
report is used to protect the revenue.
Current Actions: We are submitting this information collection as a
revision. We are revising TTB F 5250.2 to remove two data elements
which TTB has determined to be no longer necessary. The form
instructions also are being amended to reflect changes made to the
regulations by T.D. TTB-104, which was published in the Federal
Register (77 FR 37287) on June 21, 2012.
