Manufacturers of tobacco products, cigarette papers, or cigarette tubes, cigar manufacturers operating in a customs bonded manufacturing warehouse, and export warehouse proprietors may remove such products without payment of the Federal tobacco excise tax for export or for consumption beyond the jurisdiction of the internal revenue laws of the United States, under 26 U.S.C. 5704(b). The manufacturer or export warehouse proprietor records these removals on TTB F 5200.14, which is also signed by the recipient or a customs officer, certifying the appropriate receipt of the products. The form, therefore, is used to show that these tax-free removals are in fact delivered in compliance with the law.
