(B) Applicants shall apply through the department's electronic online system.

Required questions and fields for controlled substance registrations are marked with an asterisk (*) in the electronic online system.

(2) Period of Registration.

(A) Any registration shall be current and effective for twelve (12) months from the date issued or until the expiration date assigned at the time the registration is issued. No person who is required to be registered shall conduct any activity for which registration is required without a current registration. No controlled substance activities shall take place after a registration expires until a new registration has been issued.

(B) At the time any registration is issued, the registration shall be assigned to one of twelve (12) groups which shall correspond to the months of the year. The expiration date of all registrations within any group shall be the last day of the month designated for that group.

(E) A certificate of registration shall be made available online and printable to the registrant which shall include the name and address of the registrant, the expiration date of the registration, and a registration number for the convenience of identifying a registration or a registrant. The same registration number may be used for a new registration for the same person.

(3) Requirements for All Applicants.

(A) Any person who is required to be registered and who is not so registered may apply online for registration at any time. No person required to be registered shall engage in any activity for which registration is required until the application for registration is processed and the registration is issued. All applications are for new registrations.

(B) Applications for registration shall be made on online forms designated by the Department of Health and Senior Services. Application for registration shall be completed online and submitted electronically via the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services' website at https://health.mo.gov/safety/bndd/ along with the required fee.

(E) An application may be withdrawn by making a written request to the Department of Health and Senior Services.

(F) A person who is registered may conduct activities with controlled substances in Schedules II, III, I V, and V, as authorized by statute, unless a registration is restricted as to schedules or activities because of a settlement agreement, probation, or other disciplinary action taken by the Department of Health and Senior Services, the Drug Enforcement Administration, or a professional licensing board. Authority to conduct activities with controlled substances in Schedule I requires a separate application and registration.

(4) All applicants shall make full, true, and complete answers on the application. The Department of Health and Senior Services may require an applicant to submit documents or written statements of fact relevant to the application as considered necessary to determine whether the application should be granted.
