How often must manufacturers and distributors renew their DEA registration?

Annually
Biennially
Semiannually
Triennially

The correct answer is: Annually

Manufacturers and distributors are required to renew their DEA registration every two years, which is referred to as biennial renewal. This requirement ensures that these entities maintain compliance with federal regulations governing the manufacturing and distribution of controlled substances. Regular renewal helps the DEA monitor and regulate the activities of these entities to prevent the abuse and illegal distribution of drugs. While annual, semiannual, and triennial renewals may apply to other types of registrations or permits within the pharmacy and healthcare fields, the specific requirement for manufacturers and distributors under the DEA regulations is clearly set at a biennial renewal schedule. This two-year cycle allows the DEA to keep accurate and up-to-date records necessary for maintaining the integrity of the controlled substances supply chain.
