Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Alternate Methods or
Procedures and Emergency Variations
from Requirements for Exports of
Liquors (TTB REC 5170/7).
Abstract: Under the TTB regulations
in 27 CFR part 28, exporters of alcohol
may file applications requesting TTB
approval of alternate methods or
procedures and emergency variations
from the requirements of that part. TTB
uses such applications to determine if
the requested method, procedure, or
emergency variation will protect the
revenue, is not contrary to law, and will
not pose a burden to TTB in
administering part 28, while allowing
exporters the maximum operational
flexibility.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 138.
OMB Number: 1513–0097.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Notices Relating to Payment of
Firearms and Ammunition Excise Tax
by Electronic Fund Transfer.
Abstract: TTB collects Federal excise
taxes on the sale or use of firearms and
ammunition by firearms or ammunition
manufacturers, importers, and
producers, and taxpayers may remit
their excise tax payments by electronic
funds transfer (EFT), as authorized
under 26 U.S.C. 6302. Taxpayers who
elect to pay these taxes by EFT must
furnish a written notice to TTB when
they elect to use, or discontinue use of,
EFT. TTB uses this information to
anticipate and monitor taxpayer
methods of payment and to ensure that
taxes are remitted in the appropriate
form, as chosen by the taxpayer.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 1.
OMB Number: 1513–0100.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Applications, Notices, and
Relative to Importation and Exportation
of Distilled Spirits, Wine, and Beer,
Including Puerto Rico and Virgin
Islands.
Abstract: Distilled spirits, industrial
alcohol, beer and wine are taxed when
imported into the United States, but the
Federal excise taxes collected on these
commodities brought into the United
States from Puerto Rico and the U.S.
Virgin Islands are largely returned to
their respective governments. Exports
are generally tax free. The documents
required under this information
collection ensure that the proper taxes
are collected and returned according to
law.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 180.

Title: Information Collected in
Support of Small Producer’s Wine Tax
Credit (TTB REC 5120/11).
Abstract: Under 26 U.S.C. 5041(c),
certain small wine producers are
eligible for a tax credit which may be
taken to reduce the Federal excise tax
they pay on wines removed from their
premises. In addition, small producers
can transfer their tax credit to bonded
warehouses, which store their wine and
ship it on their instructions. Under TTB
regulations, the transferee uses
information provided by the small
producer to take the appropriate credit
on behalf of the small producer, and the
producer will use the information to
monitor its own tax payments to ensure
it does not exceed the authorized annual
credit. The information is used by
taxpayers in preparing their returns and
by TTB to verify tax computation.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 2,800.
