When Mailing an ATF Form 4 to the ATF, Do you Need to Include a Return Mailing Label?

When you are applying for an ATF Form 1, ATF Form 4, ATF Form 5 tax stamp on paper, you won't need to send the ATF an additional payment for the approved tax stamp to be returned to you by mail. This also means that you won't need to include a return shipping label with your ATF tax stamp application. The ATF will mail the approved tax stamp to the transferor, maker, etc after the tax stamp is approved. The approved tax stamp will be mailed first class mail for free. There is also no way to have the approved tax stamp sent by the ATF in an expedited manner or sent with a tracking number.
