Under its statutory and delegated authorities, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is responsible for the collection of the Federal excise taxes imposed on distilled spirits, wine, beer, tobacco products, and cigarette papers and tubes by chapters 51 and 52 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). As provided at 26 U.S.C. 5061(a) and 26 U.S.C. 5703(b), the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) requires that those taxes be collected on the basis of a return, filed for the periods, at the times, and containing the information the Secretary of the Treasury (the Secretary) requires by regulation. The IRC at 26 U.S.C. 7652(a) also provides that the taxes imposed by the IRC on domestic articles, including those on alcohol and tobacco products, apply at the same rates to similar products manufactured in Puerto Rico and brought into the United States, to be paid and collected under regulations issued by the Secretary. In addition, section 7652(a) requires the majority of such collected taxes to be transferred into the treasury of Puerto Rico. Issued under those IRC authorities, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 26 (for distilled spirits, wine, and beer) and part 41 (for tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes), prescribe the use of TTB F 5000.25, Excise Tax Return â Alcohol and Tobacco (Puerto Rico) as the return for collection of the excise taxes imposed by the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 7652(a).
