B. When must I prepare this report? You must prepare and file this report at the following times.
(1) The month in which you start to engage in the business of a proprietor of an export warehouse and each following month, as long as you are engaged in the business.
You must file this report each month whether or not you conduct any business.
(2) When an appropriate TTB officer has required a special inventory.
(3) When you discontinue the business covered by your TTB permit.
C. When must I file this report? No later than 20 days after the end of the month that the report covers.
D. WHERE DO I FILE THIS FORM? Send the completed form to the Director, TTB National Revenue Center, 550 Main St., Ste. 8002, Cincinnati, OH 45202-5215. Or,
you may submit this form to TTB electronically via the Pay.gov website; see https://www.ttb.gov/epayment/epayment.shtml for details. Keep a copy of the completed form
for your records.
E. How do I enter quantities of articles on the report form? Each column heading states the unit of measure as either “number” or “pounds.” Where “number” is
indicated, enter the total number of individual sticks or units. For example, ten thousand small cigarettes would be entered as “10,000”. Do not enter the number of
packs, cartons or cases. Where “pounds” is indicated, enter quantity in pounds and fractions of a pound, rounded to two decimal places. For example, show ten pounds
four ounces as “10.25” - convert total ounces to pounds by dividing total ounces by 16.

For example, EWXX-1234 where XX is the 2-letter State abbreviation of the U.S. Post Office. Each location at which you conduct operations has a "number". If you have more than one
