Mailing in a Paper Check

If you are paying by mailing in a check to the lock box you must first visit the Device Facility User Fee website to place an order for the establishment registration user fee. Once you place and print your order, you will receive a Payment Identification Number (PIN). Please note the following instructions:

  • Funds must be in U.S. currency
  • Check made payable to Food and Drug Administration (must be in U.S. dollars and drawn on a U.S. Bank)
  • Write the FDA post office box number ( PO Box 70961) on the check
  • Write the Payment Identification Number (PIN) on your check
  • Include a copy of your order with your check

When your payment has been received and processed you will be notified by email. Confirmation of payment by mailing in a check can take up to seven business days.

You will need the PIN and PCN in order to complete your annual registration in FURLS.

After generating your Payment Identification Number (PIN), you may send your payment using the following information. Please note that you are responsible for paying all wire transfer fees.
