DEA Form 225 is used for new registration for which type of entity?

DEA Form 225 is used for new registration for which type of entity?

• A. Researcher
• B. Distributor
• C. Narcotic treatment program
• D. Domestic chemical business

Answer: (A)

DEA Form 225 is the application used for registration to handle controlled substances in activities such as research, manufacturing, or distributing. Researchers who plan to work with controlled substances in a lab must file this form to obtain authorization. Narcotic treatment programs are registered with a different form (not 225), and a domestic chemical business falls under other regulatory pathways, not this form. So, for a new registration among these options, the entity that uses Form 225 is the researcher.
