(Rev. July 2017)  
For Use With Form 720-CS (Rev. September 2010)  
Carrier Summary Report  
Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless  
otherwise noted.  
Internal Revenue Service  
Attn: Excise Unit  
Future Developments  
Stop 5701G  
Cincinnati, OH 45999  
For the latest information about developments related to Form  
720-CS, and its instructions, such as legislation enacted after  
they were published, go to IRS.gov/Form720CS.  
Send the forms in a flat mailing (not folded). Don't staple, tear, or  
tape any of these forms. If you're sending a large number of  
forms in conveniently sized packages, write your name and EIN  
on each package and number the packages consecutively.  
Postal regulations require forms and packages to be sent by  
First-Class Mail.  
Reminders  
These instructions are for paper filers. Electronic filing is  
required for each return reporting 25 or more transactions a  
month. However, all taxpayers are encouraged to electronically  
file. File Form 720-CS electronically through the Excise  
Summary Terminal Activity Reporting System (ExSTARS). For  
more information on e-file and ExSTARS, visit the IRS website at  
IRS.gov/Excise. Also, see Pub. 3536, Motor Fuel Excise Tax EDI  
Guide.  
How To Complete Form 720-CS  
Below are suggestions that will allow the IRS to process the  
submitted forms in the most economical manner.  
1. If you need additional forms or schedules, you may use  
photocopies.  
Photographs of Missing Children  
2. Although handwritten forms are acceptable, the IRS  
prefers that you type or machine print data entries using 10-  
pitch (pica) or 12-pitch (elite) black type. Use block print, not  
script characters. Insert data in the middle of the blocks not  
touching other printing and guidelines, and take other measures  
to guarantee a dark black, clear, sharp image.  
3. Don’t enter 0 (zero) or “None” in data entry boxes when  
no entry is required. Leave the boxes blank unless the  
instructions specifically require that you enter a 0 (zero).  
The IRS is a proud partner with the National Center for Missing  
& Exploited Children® (NCMEC). Photographs of missing  
children selected by the Center may appear in instructions on  
pages that would otherwise be blank. You can help bring these  
children home by looking at the photographs and contacting  
1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678) or www.missingkids.com/  
home if you recognize a child.  
General Instructions  
Substitute Form 720-CS  
Purpose of Form  
If you want to prepare and use a substitute Form 720-CS, see  
Pub. 1167, General Rules and Specifications for Substitute  
Forms and Schedules. If your substitute Form 720-CS is  
approved, the form approval number must be printed in the  
lower left margin of each substitute form you file with the IRS.  
Use Form 720-CS if you're a bulk transport carrier to report  
monthly receipts and disbursements of all liquid products at a  
storage location designated by a facility control number (FCN).  
A liquid product is any liquid that is transported in or out of  
storage at a terminal or any other facility. See Table 2.  
Extension of Time To File  
First time request for a 30-day extension will be granted, if  
received in writing on or before the due date of the report.  
Additional extensions may be considered if received prior to the  
due date of the return. Send your request to:  
Who Must File  
Form 720-CS is required to be filed by bulk transport carriers  
(barges, ships, and pipelines) who receive or deliver reportable  
liquid products in or out of storage at a terminal, or any other  
location designated by an FCN.  
Internal Revenue Service  
Attn: Excise Unit  
Pipelines only file receipt or delivery transactions at an  
approved terminal.  
Stop 5701G  
Cincinnati, OH 45999  
When To File  
Form 720-CS must be filed monthly. The report is due the last  
day of the month following the month in which the transaction  
occurs.  
Requests also may be faxed to 859-669-5788.  
Corrected Returns  
If you filed a return with the IRS and later discover you made an  
error, you must correct it as soon as possible. If you filed your  
return electronically, see Pub. 3536 for instructions.  
If any due date for filing a return falls on a Saturday, Sunday,  
or legal holiday, you may file the return on the next business day.  
Send your information return to the IRS using the U.S. Postal  
Service or a designated private delivery service to meet the  
“timely mailing as timely filing/paying” rule. See Private Delivery  
Services, later.  
When making a correction to a paper filed return, you must  
send in the first page of Form 720-CS and the schedule(s) that  
needs to be corrected with the “Void” box checked. Identify the  
transaction you're correcting, either by highlighting or attaching  
an explanation. Then, complete another first page of Form  
720-CS along with the corrected schedule(s) with the  
Where To File  
Send Form 720-CS to:  
Jul 26, 2017  
Cat. No. 54364R  
“Corrected” box checked. On the corrected schedule(s), only  
enter the information for the transaction you're correcting.  
Form 637 Registration Number  
Enter the assigned IRS number. Regulations section  
48.4101-1(c)(1) require pipeline operators, position holders,  
terminal operators, and vessel operators to be registered by the  
IRS. If you don't have a registration number, use Form 637,  
Application for Registration (For Certain Excise Tax Activities).  
Form 637 has information on how to apply for a registration  
number.  
Recordkeeping  
Keep copies of information returns you have filed with the IRS or  
the data to reconstruct them for at least 3 years from the date of  
the return. Your records must be available at all times for  
inspection by the IRS.  
Penalty  
Carrier and Consignor Names and EINs  
Failure to file correct information returns by the due date.  
If you fail to file a correct information return by the due date and  
you cannot show reasonable cause, you may be subject to a  
penalty. The penalty applies if you fail to file timely, you fail to  
include all information required to be shown on a return, or you  
include incorrect information on a return. The penalty also  
applies if you report an incorrect employer identification number  
(EIN) or fail to report an EIN where required.  
EINs are used to associate and verify transactions you report to  
the IRS. Therefore, it's important that you furnish correct names  
and EINs for carriers and consignors on the forms sent to the  
IRS.  
You may use Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification  
Number and Certification, or your own form, to request an EIN  
from a carrier or a consignor. You may be subject to a penalty for  
an incorrect or missing EIN on an information return. See  
Penalty, earlier. You're required to maintain the confidentiality of  
information obtained on a Form W-9 relating to the taxpayer's  
identity and you may use such information only to comply with  
filing these information returns.  
Private Delivery Services  
You can use certain private delivery services (PDS) designated  
by the IRS to meet the “timely mailing as timely filing/paying” rule  
for tax returns and payments. Go to IRS.gov/PDS for the current  
list of designated services.  
Note. Foreign persons may use the appropriate Form W-8. See  
the Instructions for the Requester of Forms W-8BEN, W-8ECI,  
W-8EXP, and W-8IMY.  
The PDS can tell you how to get written proof of the mailing  
date. For the IRS mailing address to use if you’re using a PDS,
