    • Type of registration
    • DEA registration number
    • Site name
    • Province located in
    • Municipality located in
    • Sic Code (generators only)
    • Year registered

    A list of all matching registrations will be given below the search function.

  2. You are able to search for the site, or for the associated activities on the site. Please note, all activities are listed against a site, on which the activities take place. The site and the associated activities are identified by their unique ID, for example, a site will carry the ID - D00018, while the associated activities on the site will carry the ID - D00018-01, D00018-02 etc.


  3. If you find that your site is already registered, but not the specific activity, please log onto the Central Registry using the username and password provided to you and register any additional activities.


  4. If you find that your activity is already registered, please use the DEA registration number, username and password provided to you to access the central registry through the login. For more information on this, contact the DEA Central Registry Administrator.


  5. If you find that your site and activity are not already registered, and you are required to register as per Who should register, then go to the Register function.
