This application is filed in duplicate with the Director, National Revenue
Center, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, 550 Main St,
Ste 8002, Cincinnati, OH 45202-5215.

2.

The purpose is to obtain or amend an Industrial Alcohol User Permit
(TTB F 5150.9) to withdraw, deal in, or use specially denatured
alcohol under 27 CFR 20.41, or to use tax-free alcohol under
27 CFR 22.41.

3.

4.

Submit supporting organizational documents as required under
27 CFR 20.45 and 22.45, and personnel questionnaires on all officers,
directors, and stockholders, if applicable.
An amended application is required when any information on the

by the Director, National Revenue Center. Letter notices
sequentially numbered may be filed in some instances.

5.

Tax-free alcohol, in its original or recovered state, cannot be used or
sold for beverage purposes, food products, or in any preparation
used in beverage or food products. A permittee who uses tax-free
alcohol in any manner prohibited by 27 CFR Part 22 will become
liable for the tax on the alcohol.

State and local government agencies, including hospitals and
universities, are exempt from the requirement of posting bond.
Applicants who qualify for this exemption must submit proof of the
right to exemption. A State, political subdivision, or the District of
Columbia may specify in the application that it desires a single
permit authorizing the withdrawal and use of specially denatured or
tax-free spirits in a number of institutions under its control. Show the
method of distribution and accounting for the specially denatured or taxfree spirits to be withdrawn on a separate attachment marked “Supplemental application for an Industrial Alcohol User Permit to TTB F 5150.22."
