The Internal Revenue Code (IRC), at 26
U.S.C. 5066, 5214, and 5362, provides that distilled spirits,
denatured spirits, and wines may be withdrawn from bonded premises,
without payment of excise tax, for export, for transfer to a
foreign trade zone or a customs bonded warehouse, or for use as
supplies on certain vessels or aircraft. These IRC sections also
state that such withdrawals are subject to regulations prescribed
by the Secretary of the Treasury. Under those IRC authorities, the
TTB alcohol export regulations in 27 CFR part 28 require exporters
to use TTB F 5100.11 to report and document removals of distilled
spirits, denatured spirits, and wines, without payment of tax, for
export purposes. Those purposes include direct export to a foreign
country or United States armed forces stationed overseas; transfer
to a foreign trade zone, a customs manufacturing bonded warehouse,
or a customs bonded warehouse for subsequent export; or for use as
supplies on international vessels or aircraft. The collected
information is necessary to protect the revenue. Information
provided on TTB F 5100.11 allows TTB to determine that exporters of
spirits and wines withdrawn without payment of tax possess the
appropriate bond coverage, and the form provides certification that
the products in question were, in fact, exported or laden and not
diverted into domestic commerce, which is subject to tax.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
