Regulations
The regulations issued by Federal agencies are contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), which consists of 50 "titles" covering broad subject areas. The alcohol, tobacco, and other regulations administered by TTB are contained in Title 27, Chapter I, of the Code of Federal Regulations (27 CFR Chapter I). Each title of the CFR is divided into "chapters," then "parts," which cover a more particular subject. Each part is further divided into "sections" containing specific regulations.
You may search, view, and print each part of 27 CFR Chapter I, or a single section of a part, free of charge using the online "e-CFR"* which is updated continually and contains the most current version of the TTB regulations.
