Who needs a DEA registration?
Any person who manufacturers, distributes, dispenses, imports, or exports
any controlled substance or who plans to engage in these activities must
obtain a registration unless exempted.
1
Keep in mind that a separate registration is needed for each principal place
of business. For example a separate registration is needed for a satellite
location where controlled substances are stored and used to treat patients.
The registration requirement is waived for un-registered practitioners
working as an employee or an agent of a registered practitioner. In this
instance, the unregistered practitioner is able to administer and dispense
drugs, but they are unable to write prescriptions.
The Veterinary Mobility Act of 2014
would apply if the practitioner
transports controlled substance to
use in the states they licensed to
treat animals on the farm, stable
or home with the intention that the
remaining drugs will be brought
back to the registered location to be
securely stored.
