REGISTRATION

There is no fee to attend this conference. To ensure in-person participation is available to all interested registrants, DEA is requesting that no more than 5 persons per DEA registration number plan to attend in-person. Additional participants are welcome to attend virtually. Unregistered attendees will not be permitted to attend the conference. In the past, there was confusion as to whether private practice attorneys or consulting firms may or may not attend DEA-sponsored conferences for industry. If these individuals or firms represent registrants or their affiliated associations on an "as-needed basis," DEA does not view them as employees of a registrant or an association, but as paid consultants. As such, they are not eligible to attend these types of conferences.

NOTE: Please choose to attend either in-person or virtually. Do not register for both.

Maximum Capacity (in-person) = 500 attendees.

Breakout sessions are an optional opportunity for a 15-minute private session for those attending in-person to address inquiries pertaining to Quotas or Import/Export directly with DEA personnel. Companies may schedule only one appointment with the Quota section and one appointment with the Import/Export section. Please send your request for Breakout Session to Diversion.Conferences@dea.gov no later than Friday, March 14th to be scheduled.
