Section 103 of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act, 27 U.S.C. 203) requires that a person must apply to the Secretary of the Treasury for a "basic permit" before beginning business as: (1) an importer into the United States of distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages, (2) a producer of distilled spirits or wine, or (3) a wholesaler of distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages. In addition, section 104 of the FAA Act (27 U.S.C. 204(c)) prescribes who is entitled to a basic permit, and it authorizes the Secretary to prescribe the manner and form of, and the information required for, basic permit applications. Under these authorities, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 1, subpart C, require that new applications for FAA Act basic permits must be made on form TTB F 5100.24. This application enables TTB to determine the location of the proposed business, the extent of its operations, and if the applicant is qualified under the FAA Act to receive a basic permit.
