Abstract: Title 21 U.S.C. 827 requires controlled substance manufacturers and distributors to make periodic reports to the DEA regarding the sale, delivery, and other disposal of certain controlled substances. The implementing regulations are found at 21 CFR 1304.33. The Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, 1961, and the Convention on Psychotropic Substances, 1971, impose certain reporting obligations on the United States, and aggregate data from Form 333s are provided to the International Narcotics Control Board to meet those obligations.
