Decide Which File Types to Use

After you have filled out the registration form information, determine which file file types or forms to create.  If you have multiple applicators to include on your report, we recommend using a Form 26A to enter their information.  The pesticide applications they made should be entered on a Form 26.  If any of the applicators that you are reporting for made any applications during the report year, you should submit a Form 26.

 

Tip

You may enter all your applications in one file even if they were made by multiple applicators; we do not need a separate report for each applicator.

 

If you are reporting for a pesticide sales business and you sell restricted use pesticides, create a Form 25.  If you sell pesticides to private applicators, we will need a Form 27.  If you entered a commercial permit number, you must submit either a Form 25 or a Form 27 or both.

 

Note

Be sure to include applicators who did not make applications on your report and applicators who left the organization during the report year.  If your organization is a pesticide sales business, be sure to report even if you did not make any sales during the report year.

 

You can report two different types of sales on Form 25; report either sales to another commercial permit holder who will resell the products or sales to commercial applicators for their end use.  If you have both types of sales to report, please send us a separate form for each type.  However you do notneed to complete a form for the type of sales you did not make (but you still need to report even if you did not make any sales).
