DOJ/DEA RIN: 1117-AA89 Publication ID: Spring 2005 
Title: Clarification of Registration Requirements for Individual Practitioners 
Abstract: DEA is publishing this rule to clarify its registration requirements regarding practitioners practicing in more than one State. There is confusion within the regulated industry regarding whether a practitioner who practices and is registered in one State and wishes to practice and prescribe in another State must register with DEA in the second State. To address the confusion caused by the regulation as currently written, DEA is proposing to amend its regulations to make it clear that when an individual practitioner who practices and is registered in one State seeks to practice and prescribe controlled substances in another State, he/she must obtain a separate DEA registration for the subsequent State.
