What You Can Fax to Drug Enforcement Administration

  • A copy of the notice or case number the document responds to
  • A signed authorization if someone is acting on your behalf
  • A cover sheet naming the exact office and the reason for the fax
  • A required notification referencing the applicable form
  • A records or FOIA request with your identifiers
Tip: Put your full name and any case, receipt, or file number on every page so Drug Enforcement Administration can match documents that get separated. Name the receiving office on the cover sheet — the office that handles your application or case or the office on your notice — and add a callback number. Check whether Drug Enforcement Administration accepts a fax for your request at all, then combine the pages into one job.

Faxing to Drug Enforcement Administration — FAQ

Drug Enforcement Administration does not publish one fax for the whole agency. Each office answers a different fax, so the right one depends on your request. Ask for the office you actually need to get the right number. Sending to the wrong office only delays the request.

Every page should carry your identifiers and the reference number for the matter. Add a cover sheet addressed to the office on your notice at Drug Enforcement Administration with a callback number. That routing detail is what lets Drug Enforcement Administration reconnect the documents if they separate. Check the details once before you send so nothing bounces back.

Fax is accepted for certain requests at Drug Enforcement Administration, not all. Many federal documents now go through the DEA Diversion Control portal instead of a fax. Ask the office directly so you do not send to a line that is no longer used.

You can send to Drug Enforcement Administration any time, though routine paperwork is worked during business hours. Routine documents are handled on weekdays. Send routine requests early in the day for same-day handling.

Send the application or request to the office that works it, with the required attachments. Confirm the current fax with Drug Enforcement Administration before sending.
