Correction: Updating Regulation References to Reflect Reorganizations at the Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service
Summary
The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is updating its regulations to reflect recent reorganizations at the Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service. This is a technical correction that updates references to these agencies throughout TTB's rules to ensure they point to the correct offices and departments.
Key Points
- 1The TTB is fixing outdated references in its regulations that no longer match how the Department of Justice and IRS are currently organized
- 2These are mostly technical updates to ensure regulations point to the right government offices and departments
- 3This is a proposed rule, meaning the TTB is asking for public feedback before making the changes final
- 4The changes mainly affect how TTB communicates with and refers to other federal agencies, not new rules for businesses or consumers
- 5Businesses in the alcohol and tobacco industries should expect updated official references and contacts in TTB documents once this correction is finalized
Impact Assessment
If you are an alcohol or tobacco manufacturer or importer, this means the regulatory references you consult will be updated to point to the correct Department of Justice and IRS offices, requiring minimal operational adjustment.
