SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB)

    Title: Importer's Records and Reports (TTB REC 5170/1).
    OMB Control Number: 1513-0064.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Description: Pursuant to chapter 51 of the IRC (26 U.S.C.) and the 
FAA Act at 27 U.S.C. 201 et seq., TTB regulates, among other things, 
the importation of distilled spirits, wine, and malt beverages. 
Pursuant to chapter 52 of the IRC (26 U.S.C.) TTB also regulates the 
importation of tobacco products, processed tobacco, and cigarette 
papers and tubes. Those statutory provisions are the basis of the TTB 
alcohol and tobacco regulations that require importers of those 
products to obtain permits and to submit certain information upon 
importation. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and TTB use the 
information collected under this request to ensure that alcohol and 
tobacco product importers have the required permits, have paid the 
applicable taxes, and that commodities released from customs custody 
without payment of tax for transfer to a bonded facility are eligible 
for such release. TTB also uses this collection to ensure that imported 
alcohol product labels comply with FAA Act requirements. The reporting 
provisions allow for the submission of import-related information 
electronically along with the electronic submission of entry 
information to CBP. In addition, TTB uses the letterhead applications 
covered under this collection to evaluate requests to vary from the 
regulatory provisions. The collected information is necessary to ensure 
applicable tax revenue is paid and that alcohol and tobacco importers 
comply with Federal laws and regulations.
    TTB Recordkeeping Number: TTB REC 5170/1.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profits.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 10,550.
