Under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC)
at 26 U.S.C. 5722, importers of tobacco products and of processed
tobacco are required to provide reports containing such
information, in such form, at such times, and for such periods as
the Secretary prescribes by regulation. Under that authority, the
TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 41 require importers of tobacco
products and importers of processed tobacco to submit a monthly
report on TTB F 5220.6 to account for such products on hand,
received, and removed. TTB requires this information to protect the
revenue as it assists TTB in ensuring that the appropriate taxes on
such products are paid. The required information also allows the
Bureau to determine the amount and disposition of tobacco products
and processed tobacco imported into the United States, which
assists TTB in preventing diversion of tobacco products and
processed tobacco into the illegal market.
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.
