Abstract: The DEA implements the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) which requires that every person who manufactures or distributes a list I chemical shall annually obtain a registration for that purpose. 21 U.S.C. 822 and 823. Additionally, the Controlled Substances Import and Export Act (CSIEA) requires that persons who import or export list I chemicals must obtain a registration prior to conducting such activities. 21 U.S.C. 957 and 958. DEA Form 510 is utilized by applicants desiring to manufacture, distribute, import, and export list I chemicals. DEA Form 510A is utilized for renewal of the registration on an annual basis. DEA is proposing to revise the regulations for application and renewal by requiring all DEA registrants to apply for registration online using the agency’s secure portal. This will eliminate the need for paper forms and payments, streamline the registration process, and save time and expense for both the agency and registration population.
