INSTRUCTION SHEET
TTB FORM 5630.5t - SPECIAL TAX REGISTRATION AND RETURN - TOBACCO
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
If you are engaged in one or more of the tobacco activities
listed on this form, you are required to file this form and pay
any special (occupational) tax that is due before beginning
business. You may file one return to cover several locations or
several types of activity. However, you must submit a separate
return for each tax period. The special occupational tax period
runs from July 1 through June 30 and payment is due annually
by July 1. If you do not pay on a timely basis, interest will be
charged and penalties may be incurred.
The special tax rates listed on this form became effective
January 1, 1988. If you were engaged in a tobacco related
activity prior to this date no special occupational tax is due.
If you engage in a taxable activity at more than one location,
attach to your return a sheet showing your name, trade name,
address, employer identification number and the complete
street addresses of all additional locations.
SECTION I - TAXPAYER IDENTIFYING INFORMATION
Complete Section I, Taxpayer Identifying Information, as
specified on the form. Enter the tax period covered by the
return in the space provided. Your return must contain a valid
Employer Identification Number (EIN). The EIN is a unique
number for business entities issued by the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS). You must have an EIN whether you are an
individual owner, partnership, corporation, LLC, or a
government agency. If you do not have an EIN, contact the
Internal Revenue Service immediately to obtain one. While
TTB may assign a temporary identification number (beginning
with XX) to allow initial processing of a return which lacks an
EIN, do not delay submission of your return and payment
pending receipt of your EIN. If you have not received a
number by the time you file this return, write "number applied
for" in the space for the number. Submit your EIN by separate
correspondence after receipt from the IRS.
SECTION II - TAX COMPUTATION
To complete Section II, enter the number of locations in
Column (d) on the appropriate line(s) and multiply by the tax
rate, Column (c). Insert the tax due in Column (e). If you
begin operations after the month of July, then you are
responsible for paying a prorated amount for the portions of the
year you are in business. To compute your taxes, multiply the
monthly rate, Column (b), by the number of locations Column
(d), and then by the number of months, treating parts of
months as whole months, from the date you commenced
operations through June 30. Insert the tax due in Column (e).
(For example, if you commenced operations on March 14, you
would multiply by 4.) Compute the taxes due for each class
and enter the total amount due in the block "Total Tax Due".
INSTRUCTIONS FOR REDUCED RATE TAXPAYERS
The reduced rates for certain taxpayer classes, indicated with
an asterisk (*) in Section II, apply only to those taxpayers
whose total gross receipts for your most recent income tax
year are less than $500,000 (not just receipts relating to the

activity subject to special occupational tax). Further, if you are
a member of a controlled group as defined in section 5061(e)
(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, you are not eligible for this
reduced rate unless the total gross receipts for the entire group
are less than $500,000. If your business is beginning an
activity subject to special tax for the first time, you may qualify
for a reduced rate in your initial tax year if your total gross
receipts for the business (or the entire controlled group, if a
member of a control group) were under $500,000 in the
previous year. If you are eligible for the reduced rate, check
the appropriate box in Section III and compute your tax using
the reduced rate in Section III.
SECTION III - BUSINESS REGISTRATION
Please complete the ownership information in Section III.
Supply the information specified for each individual owner,
partner or responsible person. For a corporation, partnership
or association, a responsible person is anyone with the power
to control the management policies or buying or selling
practices pertaining to tobacco. For a corporation, association
or similar organization, it also means any person owning 10
percent or more of the outstanding stock in the business.
CHANGES IN OPERATIONS
If there is a change of address or location, TTB F 5630.5t must
be completed and submitted within 30 days of the change. All
taxpayers must also contact TTB National Revenue Center;
see contact information below, in order to amend their permit
or to obtain a new one.
If special taxpayers do not register these changes within the
appropriate time frames, additional tax and interest will be
charged and penalties may be incurred. For a change in
ownership or control of an activity, consult the TTB National
Revenue Center before beginning the activity.
SIGNING RETURN
This form must be signed by the individual owner, a partner, or,
in the case of a corporation, an individual authorized to sign for
the corporation.

Please sign and date the return, make check or money order
payable to Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, for
