Medium to Large Alcohol Fuel Plants
TTB has approved your application as a medium or a large alcohol fuel plant (AFP). If it is required by your state, you should forward a copy of your permit to the appropriate state agency. You should also keep your permit and application on file at the permitted premises and available for examination by TTB officials. For more information about requirements, including the life of an AFP permit, visit our Alcohol Fuel page.
As a permit holder, there are several federal laws and regulations you are required to meet, that include the following processes:
- Gauging distilled spirits
- Taking inventories
- Maintaining records of your operations
- Filing reports
You must notify us immediately of any change in name, address, ownership, management, or control of the business.
Medium Plants
You must notify us immediately if you intend to increase your production or receipts to a level in excess of 500,000—or decrease to a level of 10,000 or less—proof gallons of spirits per calendar year.
Large Plants
You must notify us immediately if you intend to decrease your production or receipts to a level of 500,000 or below proof gallons of spirits per calendar year.
As long as the fuel alcohol is withdrawn from an AFP under the provisions of 27 CFR, part 19, subpart X, taxes are not due. The statutory provisions of 26 U.S.C. 5181 provide for the withdrawal of distilled spirits from AFP premises free of tax exclusively for fuel use as provided in 26 U.S.C. 5214(a)(12), and section 5214(a)(12) states that distilled spirits on which the tax has not been paid or determined, subject to such regulations as the secretary shall prescribe, may be withdrawn from bonded premises free of tax .
No taxes are due in the following circumstances:
- When the fuel alcohol is withdrawn from an AFP (see 27 CFR, part 19, subpart X)
- When distilled spirits are withdrawn from an AFP premises for fuel use (see 26 U.S.C. 5181 and 26 U.S.C. 5214(a)(12))
- When distilled spirits, on which tax has not been paid or determined, subject to such regulations as the secretary shall prescribe, are withdrawn from bonded premises (see 5214(a)(12)).
- Unfit for Beverage Use
Distilled spirits that have been rendered unfit for beverage use (see 27 CFR, part 19, subpart X) may be withdrawn tax-free from the premises of an AFP exclusively for fuel use (see 27 CFR 19.728).
- Diversion of Spirits
Payment of tax will be required in the case of diversion of spirits to beverage use or other unauthorized dispositions. The provisions of 27 CFR part 19, are applicable to distilled spirits for fuel use. Specifically: -
- The imposition of tax liability (27 CFR 19.21 — 19.25);
- The assessment of tax (27 CFR 19.253 and 19.254); and
- Claims for tax (27 CFR 19.262and 19.263).

This is required for each Distilled Spirits Plant/Alcohol Fuel Plant that transfers spirits to you.
For laws and regulations about distilled spirits plant operations, select the "Other Alcohol” tab at the TTB.gov website. We've also included other guidance below.
- Laws and Regulations
For easy access, you can read the Code of Federal Regulations and public laws relating to the industrial (nonbeverage) alcohol industry. - Industry Circulars and Rulings
Industry Circulars and Rulings are issued when TTB needs to disseminate up-to-date information concerning the industry.
When a TTB form is not required, the records will be those commercial records used in the distilled spirits plant system and should contain all of the required information specified by the regulations.
Records will be prepared and kept at the distilled spirits plant and available for inspection by a TTB officer during business hours.
Distilled spirits plant proprietors are required to determine taxes owed on spirits removed from their bonded premises. To do this, proprietors will need to "gauge" the spirits; in other words, determine the quantity and proof of the spirits.
If you are a distilled spirits plant proprietor, it is important that you know how to proof your spirits correctly.
- Gauging Manual
Includes procedures and instructions for proofing distilled spirits. See The Gauging Manual - Interpolation of Proof from Table 1 of the Gauging Manual
Interpolation is the process by which a value is calculated from within two known values. Specifically, Table 1 of the gauging manual is used to ascertain the proof at 60°F from the corrected hydrometer and thermometer readings and are displayed in whole number increments of 1 degree proof and 1°F. Because most readings, after correction factors are applied, will be fractional, the proof and temperature have to be interpolated from Table 1. See Table 1 of the Gauging Manual. - Instructional Video
These short, instructional videos will guide you, step-by-step, through several frequently used proofing procedures. The videos include close-ups of techniques and processes, and explain why it is important to correctly follow all of the steps involved in proofing spirits. View video series and learn about proofing.
