Abstract: The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5704 provides for, among other things, the release of imported or returned tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes from customs custody, without payment of tax, for delivery to an export warehouse proprietor or a manufacturer of tobacco products or cigarette papers and tubes, in accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury. TTB F 5200.11 is used at importation by industry members, TTB, and customs bonded warehouse proprietors or government officials to, respectively, request, authorize, and document the release of tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes from customs custody, without payment of tax, to a manufacturer or export warehouse proprietor authorized to receive such articles. (TTB F 5200.11 is used by industry members who do not file their entry information electronically through ACE, since those industry members filing electronically submit the relevant information as data elements through ACE. The submission of information through ACE is captured under OMB Number 1513–0064.)

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There are no program changes associated with this information collection. As for adjustments, TTB is decreasing the estimated number of annual respondents, responses, and burden hours associated with this information collection. TTB now receives TTB F 5200.11 forms from significantly fewer respondents, due to an increase in industry members filing electronically through U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), as approved under OMB Control No. 1513–0064, and a decrease in the number of tobacco industry members. Also, while the information collected on TTB F 5200.11 generally remains the same, TTB is adding two new data fields to the form, for the Employer Identification Number of the recipient manufacturer or proprietor and for the TTB permit number of the importer. Since this information is readily available to the relevant respondents, TTB does not believe that the addition of these two data fields increases the burden associated with this form. In addition, TTB is clarifying the titles of certain data fields on the form and its instructions to improve the accuracy of the information reported by the recipient of the imported or returned articles.
