DEA Renewal Application Guidance
PIs will receive an email reminder notification from the DEA when it is time to renew their registration.
Section 1.
These fields will be pre-populated on the renewal form. If this information differs from what is currently
on file then it will flag this submission for further review at the DEA so do not change it unless you are
updating to the postal address they suggest (indicated below). Note that all address changes need to be
approved by the DEA at the time of moving and not during the renewal process.
US postal office has new ways of spelling out the street names etc. Review and accept suggestions if
applicable.
Section 2: Click fee except box. Then proceed. (UVM is fee exempt)
Section 3: Be sure to fill in any information that is missing, in this example, VPR Kirk Dombrowskis
email address. The DEA will email Kirk to confirm so you get the waiver. If you need any help filling this
out please contact RPO.
Then click agree and proceed.
Section 4: Confirm the schedules of drugs you are currently approved for (do not change from what
youre approved for! Applying for use of additional schedules of substances should be done in a
separate transaction with the DEA and not during renewal process. Making changes here now will hold
up your review at the DEA)
Note: 222 order forms never expire. Only order if you need them.
Note: The second check-box is typically no. There are no labs here currently manufacturing 2/2N
substances at UVM. You will, however, need to verify that the company you purchase Schedule 2/2n
substances from is not outside the US.
Click proceed when youre finished filling out this section.
Section 5: Note: UVM has a license waiver as an academic research institution so we do not have a state
license. Our DEA agent said we should type a few zeros in this field. The date can be a year after the
expiration date of your current DEA registration
Section 6: Answer the questions.
Note: Answering one of these differently than the answer you provided at last renewal (or initial
application if this is your first renewal) will prompt the DEA to schedule a meeting with you to discuss.
Answers must be honest, even if something has changed for your situation.
Please note for the fourth question, applicant is not a corporation.
Section 7: Note: If you selected No to the import and manufacturer question in section #4. Nothing will
populate in this box
Lastly, validate and submit!
