Schedule of Tobacco Products, Cigarette Papers, or Tubes Withdrawn from the Market

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5705 provides that a manufacturer or importer may receive credit for or refund of the Federal excise taxes paid on tobacco products, cigarette papers, or cigarette tubes withdrawn from the market if the Secretary of the Treasury is provided with satisfactory proof of the withdrawal. Under that IRC authority, the TTB regulations provide for the use of TTB F 5200.7 to identify tobacco products, cigarette papers, or cigarette tubes to be withdrawn from the market and the location of those articles. The form also documents the taxpayer’s planned disposition of the articles (destroyed, reduced to materials, or returned to bond), and TTB’s decision to witness or not witness that disposition. Taxpayers then file the completed TTB F 5200.7 to support their subsequent claim for credit or refund of the excise taxes paid on the withdrawn articles. The collected information is necessary to protect the revenue as it allows TTB to determine if such claims are valid.

The latest form for Schedule of Tobacco Products, Cigarette Papers, or Tubes Withdrawn from the Market expires 2027-06-30 and is listed under ICR 202402-1513-007.
