Part 5, Chapter 1, Drug Precursors
The Drug Precursors Licensing regime is an established regime which derives from the requirements of wider international obligations under the United Nations Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances 1988.
This will mean that companies trading in drug precursors will be required to apply to the Home Office Drugs and Firearms Licensing Unit for:
• Domestic Licences and Registrations – when possessing certain categories of drug precursor chemicals.
• Import and Export Licences – when trading in certain categories of chemicals.
• Pre-export notification – when trading in certain categories of chemicals.
