                                TREASURY
 
PART 28_EXPORTATION OF ALCOHOL--Table of Contents
 
                   Subpart C_Miscellaneous Provisions
 
Sec.  28.30  Export status.

    (a) Distilled spirits and wines manufactured, produced, bottled in 
bottles packed in containers, or packaged in casks or other bulk 
containers in the United States, and beer brewed or produced in the 
United States may be transferred to a foreign-trade zone for the sole 
purpose of exportation, or storage pending exportation. Liquors 
deposited in a foreign-trade zone under this part solely for such 
purposes are considered to be exported. Export status is not acquired 
until application on Form 214 for admission of the liquors into the zone 
has been approved by the district director of customs under the 
appropriate provision of 19 CFR chapter I, and the required 
certification of deposit has been made on the TTB form prescribed in 
this part.
    (b) The provisions of subpart H of this part do not apply to 
specially denatured spirits transferred to a foreign-trade zone for use 
in the manufacture of articles pursuant to the provisions of 19 U.S.C. 
81c(c). Transfer of domestic specially denatured spirits to a qualified 
user in a foreign-trade zone is made free of tax under the provisions of 
part 20 of this chapter. Such transfer does not place the domestic 
specially denatured spirits in an export status.
