Last updated: April 2026 dataAlfentanil, carfentanil, and the other named substances in this heading are Schedule I or Schedule II controlled opioids and benzodiazepines under the US Controlled Substances Act, making DEA import authorization a prerequisite for any legitimate commercial shipment. All imports must enter through a DEA-registered importer with a valid import permit (DEA Form 486) and are subject to quota allocations set annually by DEA. India is the leading supplier, with Switzerland and Ukraine also appearing among source countries. FDA oversight applies concurrently for pharmaceutical-finished or bulk drug substance shipments, requiring compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice standards from the foreign establishment.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Importers must hold a DEA Schedule I or II importer registration and submit DEA Form 486 (Import Declaration) prior to each shipment. Carfentanil, classified as Schedule II, also falls within DEA's annual aggregate production and import quota system, so quota availability must be confirmed before contracting supply. Shipments arriving without prior DEA authorization are subject to seizure.
Yes. When these compounds are imported as active pharmaceutical ingredients or finished dosage forms, FDA's drug import requirements apply concurrently — including cGMP compliance at the foreign manufacturing site and, for finished drugs, an approved NDA or ANDA. DEA and FDA controls are independent; satisfying one does not waive the other.
