Abstract: The Internal Revenue Code (IRC), at 26 U.S.C. 5114, 5173, 5272, 5354, 5401, and 5711, requires certain alcohol and tobacco industry proprietors to post a bond in conformity with regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury (Secretary) to ensure payment by the bonding company of Federal excise taxes due on alcohol or tobacco products should a proprietor default. When circumstances of a proprietor's operation change from the original bond agreement, the TTB regulations authorized under those IRC sections allow the proprietor to complete form TTB F 5000.18, Change in Bond (Consent of Surety), in lieu of obtaining a new bond. Once executed by the proprietor and an approved surety company, the form is filed with TTB, which retains it as long as the revised bond agreement remains in force.

Short Statement: Previously reported amendments to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) have exempted many small alcohol beverage industry proprietors from the IRC's provisions requiring submission of a bond and thus the need to submit changes to bonds on form TTB F 5000.18. Therefore, due to changes in agency estimates resulting from the decrease in the number of alcohol beverage industry proprietors submitting TTB F 5000.18, TTB is decreasing this information collection’s estimated number of respondents from 2,000 to 120. This results in a corresponding decrease in the collection’s estimated number of annual responses, from 2,000 to 120, and a decrease in its estimated annual burden hours, from 2,000 to 120.
