Re:	THE ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO TAX AND TRADE BUREAU (TTB)
	Q&A: Certification Requirements for Imported Wine (PDF)

Dear NASA Member:

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) recently posted to their web page (http://www.ttb.gov) a Q and A document to assist industry members with any questions they may have on the new temporary rule on the certification requirements for imported wine. A copy of that document is shown below for your information.

The Temporary Rule: T.D. TTB 31, Certification Requirements for Imported Natural Wine (8 pages) and NPRM: Notice 51, Certification Requirements for Imported Natural Wine (3 pages) as published in the August 24, 2005 Federal Register can be found at http://www.ttb.gov/wine/winecert.htm.

Thanks.

Best regards,
