TTB F 5100.16 is completed by
distilled spirits plant proprietors who wish to receive spirits in
bond from other distilled spirits plants. The proprietor of the
receiving distilled spirits plant becomes liable for the Federal
excise tax on the spirits received in bond from another plant. In
order to protect the revenue, TTB uses the information collected on
this form to determine if the applicant has sufficient bond
coverage for the additional tax liability assumed when spirits are
transferred in bond.
This information
collection is being revised in relation to a TTB temporary rule
that we are issuing in response to the Protecting Americans from
Tax Hikes Act of 2015 (PATH Act; Division Q of Pub. Law 114–113).
This rulemaking implements section 332 of the PATH Act, which
amends the Internal Revenue Code to change Federal excise tax
return due dates and remove bond requirements for certain eligible
taxpayers. These statutory changes are effective January 1, 2017,
and as a result, TTB is requesting emergency approval of this
revised information collection.
