The process of purchasing or selling a pharmacy is considered a Change of Direct Owner. This application is submitted to the College by the new Direct Owner of the pharmacy (i.e., the purchaser). However, the current Direct Owner of the pharmacy (i.e., the seller), must confirm the change by signing the application form. The new Direct Owner must submit a Change of Direct Owner application and all applicable requirements to the College at least 30 days before the effective date of change. If updated corporate documents are unavailable 30 days prior to the change, the Deferred Submission of a Required Document(s) for Change Application form must be submitted with the Change of Direct Owner application.
For further information on a Change of Direct Owner application, refer to the College website or the Pharmacy Licensure Guide.
