INSTRUCTIONS FOR TTB F 5154.2
Please mail this to the Office of Permitting and Taxation, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, 550 Main St., Ste. 8970, Cincinnati, OH 45202-3222 unless your premises is in Puerto
then mail to District Director, Puerto Rico District Field Office, Torre Chardon, 350 Ave Carlos Chardon, Suite 310, San Juan, PR 00918

(A) GENERAL. (1) Each claim for drawback must be accompanied by supporting data
containing the information presented by this form. Regulations pertaining to this form are found in
27 CFR 17.147. All quantities of spirits must be in proof gallons. This form may be photocopied.

(C) PART III. (1) In column (b), if a formula was adopted from another plant under § 17.125(b),
the plant from which the formula was adopted must be indicated in addition to the formula
number. This may be done by a letter or other symbol if the meaning is explained in
Part IV.

(2) Modifications of this form may be used without prior authorization, as long as all required
information pertinent to the manufacturing operation is shown. If certain lines or columns do
not apply to an operation, then such lines or columns may be omitted. In omitting lines or
columns, the letter or numerical designations of the remaining lines and columns must not
be changed. A continuation sheet for persons claiming on more than 14 products in Part Ill
is provided. The continuation sheet may be photocopied.

(2) For claimants under 27 CFR Part 26: Columns (c), (d), and (e) are not required; column (f)
should be used to state the proof gallons contained in each product (which may be less
than the amount used); column (g) should be used to show the amount of product brought
into the U.S.
(3) In column (c), show usage only of spirits recovered in the manufacture of nonbeverage
products (i.e. spirits from the account in column (c) of Part II). Note that usage of other
ineligible spirits (i.e. spirits derived from nonbeverage products) is not reported in Part Ill.
Such usage must be shown in batch records, however, per § 17.164(b).

(3) This form may be used by persons claiming drawback on nonbeverage products brought
into the U.S. from Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands under the provisions of 27 CFR
Part 26, as well as by domestic manufacturers claiming drawback under 27 CFR Part 17.
Certain instructions that only pertain to one of these types of claimants are so indicated.
Such instructions are not to be confused with instructions pertaining to use, by domestic
manufacturers, of Puerto Rican or Virgin Islands spirits.

(4) If spirits of more than one kind, or taxpaid at more than one effective tax rate, were used
during the claim period in any nonbeverage product, then the number of proof gallons for
each kind and for each drawback rate must be shown separately by subdividing columns
(d), (e), and (f). (This requirement does not pertain to claimants under 27 CFR Part 26).

(4) Supplies of this form may be obtained from [email protected] or 1-877-882-3277.

(5) In column (d), imported rum must be distinguished from other rum; spirits from Puerto
Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands must be distinguished if (and only if) they contain at least
92% rum.

(B) PART II. (1) Persons filing claims under 27 CFR Part 26 for Puerto Rican or Virgin Islands
products are not required to complete Part II.

(6) Yield of finished product (column (g)) must be shown in wine gallons. For dry products,
yield must be shown in the same units used to express yield in the approved formula,
TTB F 5154.1.

(2) Separate accounts must be kept under Part II for spirits taxpaid at different effective tax
rates. Separate accounts must also be kept for: (A) spirits from Puerto Rico containing at
least 92% rum, (B) spirits from the U.S. Virgin Islands containing at least 92% rum, and
(C) imported rum. These separate accounts must be maintained in columns (a), (b), and (d).
Only a single account is needed in column (c), since spirits reported there are ineligible for
drawback. If desired, additional separate accounts may be kept for other “kinds” (e.g.
alcohol of various proofs in column (a), different products in column (d), etc.). If more than
two accounts are needed in any column, the form may be modified or Part II may be
photocopied.

(7) If distilled spirits were added, as described in § 17.152(c), to a batch of nonbeverage
product that was recorded as completed during a previous claim period, such addition
must be recorded on a separate line in Part Ill. The amount shown in column (f), in such a
case, must be only the additional volume of finished product created by addition of the
spirits, and words such as “addition after assay” must be added in column (a).
(D) PART IV. (1) Part IV must contain an explanation of any discrepancies (gains or losses)
in the distilled spirits account (Part II) recorded by the physical inventory required
in § 17.167(a).

(3) In lines 4 and 15, spirits “in process” are spirits contained in unfinished intermediate or
nonbeverage products prior to the time of “use” of the spirits as determined under § 17.152.
Spirits in process are distinguished by their source; thus, for example, spirits “in process” in
an unfinished intermediate product would appear in column (a) if the spirits had not been
previously used, but they would appear in column (d) if they had come from other
intermediate products.

(2) For claimants under 27 CFR Part 17 only: If imported rum, or spirits from Puerto Rico or
the U.S. Virgin Islands containing at least 92% rum, were used subject to drawback in
nonbeverage products, Part IV must state the total number of proof gallons so used during
the period for each of those three categories. Such amounts must include eligible spirits or
rum from intermediate products and eligible recovered spirits. Ineligible spirits must not be
included.

(4) Gains (line 8) and losses (line 13) must be reported when determined, even if no
physical inventory was required for that claim period. Any gain reported in columns (a), (b),
or (d) of line 8 must be reflected by an equivalent deduction from the amount of drawback
claimed. Gains must not be offset by losses. Note: Gains and losses determined on initial
receipt of spirits (see § 17.162(d)) are not reported in Part II; nevertheless, such gains must
be reported in Part IV and deducted from the claim.

(3) For claimants under 27 CFR Part 17: If a deduction was taken from the amount of drawback claimed, due to a gain in a shipment of spirits received (as required by § 17.162(d))
or to a gain in spirits on hand (as required by § 17.167(a)), this must be noted in Part IV.

(5) Note that column (d) only calls for the eligible spirits content of intermediate products, not
the full volume of such products.

TTB F 5154.2 (09/2025)

(4) For claimants under 27 CFR Part 26 only: Part IV must state the name and address of the
manufacturer of each product (if different from the claimant), the date of entry into the U S.,
and the evidence of tax payment as required by § 26.173(c)(2)(viii) or § 26.309(c)(2)(viii).
