Woman Banned for Decade from Importing Drugs After Conviction

## Summary

Kimberly Schaff Kiehl is banned for 10 years from importing any drugs into the U.S. because she was convicted of serious crimes related to drug importation. She didn’t respond to the FDA’s notice, so the ban started on April 23, 2026. She can apply to end the ban anytime, but must follow special rules to keep some info private.

## Abstract

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) is issuing an order under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) debarring Kimberly Schaff Kiehl for a period of 10 years from importing or offering for import any drug into the United States. FDA bases this order on a finding that Ms. Kiehl was convicted of two felonies under federal law. The factual basis supporting Ms. Kiehl's conviction, as described below, is conduct relating to the importation into the United States of a drug or controlled substance. Ms. Kiehl was given notice of the proposed debarment and was given an opportunity to request a hearing to show why she should not be debarred. As of March 9, 2026 (30 days after receipt of the notice), Ms. Kiehl had not responded. Ms. Kiehl's failure to respond and request a hearing constitutes a waiver of her right to a hearing concerning this matter.
