OMB Number: 1513-0004. TTB Form Number: F 5030.6. Abstract: The TTB regulations require applicants for alcohol and tobacco [[Page 52094]] permits to provide certain information regarding the money used to finance the business. The Right to Financial Privacy Act of 1978 (the Act; 12 U.S.C. 3401 et seq.) limits government access to records held by financial institutions, provides for certain procedures to gain access to such information, and requires that government agencies certify to a financial institution that the agency has complied with all provisions of the Act. TTB F 5030.6 acts as both a customer authorization that provides TTB the authority to receive the financial information and as the required certification to the financial institution. Current Actions: We are submitting this information collection for extension purposes only. The information collection, estimated number of respondents, and estimated number of burden hours remain unchanged. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits. Estimated Number of Respondents: 2,000. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 500. Title: Liquors and Articles from Puerto Rico or the Virgin Islands, TTB REC 5530/3. OMB Number: 1513-0089. TTB Recordkeeping Requirement Number: REC 5530/3. Abstract: TTB uses the records required to be kept under this information collection to verify claims for drawback of the Federal excise tax paid on nonbeverage products brought into the United States from Puerto Rico and the U. S. Virgin Islands. Current Actions: We are submitting this information collection for extension purposes only. The recordkeeping requirements, estimated number of respondents, and estimated number of burden hours remain unchanged. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits. Estimated Number of Respondents: 20. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 160. OMB Control Number: 1513-0131. Title: Certificate of Taxpaid Alcohol. OMB Number: 1513-0131. TTB Form Number: F 5100.4. Abstract: Under 27 CFR 17.181, flavoring extracts, medicinal and toilet preparations, and perfume produced in the United States and then exported are eligible for drawback of all Federal alcohol excise taxes paid on the distilled spirits used to make the product, as provided in 19 U.S.C. 1313(d). When such nonbeverage products are exported, the industry member submits TTB F 5100.4 and supporting documentation to TTB to claim the remaining $1.00 per gallon of distilled spirits excise tax not previously claimed for domestic drawback. TTB certifies the form to show that the excise taxes were previously paid and not refunded. TTB then sends the certified form and supporting documents to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection to be processed and for the refund of the remaining $1.00 per gallon paid in excise taxes. TTB keeps a copy of the form on file to compare with future submissions in order to prevent duplication. Current Actions: We are submitting this information collection for extension purposes only. The recordkeeping requirements, estimated number of respondents, and estimated number of burden hours remain unchanged. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
