The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade
Bureau (TTB) is responsible for the collection of Federal excise
taxes on distilled spirits, wine, beer, tobacco products, cigarette
papers and tubes, and firearms and ammunition, and the collection
of special occupational taxes related to tobacco products and
cigarette papers and tubes. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC, 26
U.S.C.) requires that such taxes be collected on the basis of a
return, and it requires taxpayers to maintain records that document
the information provided on such returns. The IRC also allows for
the filing of claims for the abatement, credit, remission, or
refund (drawback) of taxes under certain circumstances, and it
requires claimants to maintain records to support such claims. TTB
uses the collected information to determine the amount of excise
and special occupational taxes rightly due, and to verify
respondent computations on tax returns or the correctness of claims
for refund or other adjustments to tax liabilities.
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.
