Abstract:
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5712 and 5713 requires that importers and manufacturers of tobacco products or processed tobacco and export warehouse proprietors apply for and obtain a permit before engaging in such operations, or at such other times, as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation. In addition, 26 U.S.C. 5712 sets forth circumstances under which a permit application may be denied, such as if the applicant, including any corporate officer, director, or major stockholder, is ineligible to obtain a permit by reason of business experience, financial standing, or certain criminal convictions. Under those IRC authorities, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR parts 40, 41, and 44 require tobacco industry members to submit applications using the prescribed TTB forms for new permits or, under certain circumstances, amended permits. Respondents use the mandated application forms and any required supporting documents to identify themselves and their business, along with its location, organization, financing, and major investors. Once TTB issues a permit, the permittee must retain a copy of their application package for as long as they continue in business, available for TTB inspection upon request. This information collection request is necessary to protect the revenue by ensuring that only persons eligible under the relevent provisions of the IRC are provided a permit to engage in tobacco-related businesses.
