27 C.F.R. § 44.36 Changes in special tax stamps.
Title 27 - Alcohol, Tobacco Products and Firearms
(a) Change in name. If there is a change in the corporate or firm name, or in the trade name, as shown on TTB Form 5630.5, the export warehouse proprietor shall file an amended special tax return as soon as practicable after the change, covering the new corporate or firm name, or trade names. No new special tax is required to be paid. The export warehouse proprietor shall attach the special tax stamp for endorsement of the change in name. (b) Change in proprietorship—(1) General. If there is a change in the proprietorship of an export warehouse, the successor shall pay a new special tax and obtain the required special tax stamps. (2) Exemption for certain successors. Persons having the right of succession provided for in paragraph (c) of this section may carry on the business for the remainder of the period for which the special tax was paid, without paying a new special tax, if within 30 days after the date on which the successor begins to carry on the business, the successor files a special tax return on TTB Form 5630.5 with TTB, which shows the basis of succession. A person who is a successor to a business for which special tax has been paid and who fails to register the succession is liable for special tax computed from the first day of the calendar month in which he or she began to carry on the business. (c) Persons having right of succession. Under the conditions indicated in paragraph (b)(2) of this section, the right of succession will pass to certain persons in the following cases: (1) Death. The widowed spouse or child, or executor, administrator or other legal representative of the taxpayer; (2) Succession of spouse. A husband or wife succeeding to the business of his or her spouse (living); (3) Insolvency. A receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, or an assignee for benefit of creditors; (4) Withdrawal from firm. The partner or partners remaining after death or withdrawal of a member. (d) Change in location. If there is a change in location of a taxable place of business, the export warehouse proprietor shall, within 30 days after the change, file with TTB an amended special tax return covering the new location. The export warehouse proprietor shall attach the special tax stamp or stamps, for endorsement of the change in location. No new special tax is required to be paid. However, if the export warehouse proprietor does not file the amended return within 30 days, he or she is required to pay a new special tax and obtain a new special tax stamp. (26 U.S.C. 5143, 7011)
