TTB has specific requirements for importing alcohol.....

as the CBP stated might be the case. ISBG isn't listed as an importer with TTB. That's the FIRST step needed before applying for a COLA.

You should also be aware of any entry requirements specific to the particular commodity you are importing/exporting, including those of other federal agencies.



Federal Basic Permit

Persons seeking to engage in the business of importing distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages as defined in the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) into the United States must apply for a Federal Basic Importer’s Permit (“Importer’s Permit”). To obtain an Importer’s Permit, the importer must file an "Application for Basic Permit under the Federal Alcohol Administration Act" on TTB F 5100.24 (PDF) with TTB’s National Revenue Center (NRC).

Certificate of Label Approval Requirements

After receiving the Importer’s Permit, the importer must obtain a TTB-issued Certificate of Label Approval (COLA) for each unique product/label for distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages as defined in the FAA Act.
