Sec.  24.106  Basic permit requirements.

    Any person intending to engage in the business of producing or 
blending wine or purchasing wine for resale at wholesale is required 
under the Federal Alcohol Administration Act, as amended (49 Stat. 978; 
27 U.S.C. 203) to obtain a basic permit. A State, a political 
subdivision of a State, or officers or employees of a State or political 
subdivision acting in their official capacity are exempted from this 
requirement. The issuance of a basic permit under the Act is governed by 
regulations in 27 CFR part 1. Where a basic permit is required to engage 
in an operation, an application for a basic permit will be filed at the 
time of filing an original or amended application on TTB F 5120.25. 
Operations requiring a basic permit may not be conducted until the basic 
permit application is approved. No Wine Producer's and Blender's Basic 
Permit or Wine Blender's Basic Permit is required for a bonded wine 
cellar established only for the purpose of storing untaxpaid wine even 
though an approved application, TTB F 5120.25, and bond are required.
