ADUFA Authority Ends September 30, 2028
The current Animal Drug User Fee Act authority (ADUFA V) expires September 30, 2028. The notice states that without new legislation to reauthorize the program, FDA will no longer be able to collect user fees for future fiscal years to fund the new animal drug review process.

If you represent a stakeholder group (veterinary professionals, patient and consumer advocacy groups, or scientific and academic experts) and want to join FDA’s ADUFA reauthorization discussions, notify FDA by email at [email protected] by June 1, 2026. Stakeholders who notify will be included in future stakeholder discussions while FDA negotiates with the regulated industry.
Scheduled Consultation Meetings Starting June 2026
FDA will hold stakeholder consultation meetings beginning in June 2026 and will continue meeting at least once every 4 months during ADUFA reauthorization negotiations.
