SNAP-R FAQs - 7. What is the difference between a “Validated End-User” and an “Eligible Destination”?
A “validated end-user” (VEU) is an entity that has been qualified as a participant in the VEU program. For each VEU, the EAR lists “eligible destinations,” which are the specific facilities of each VEU that are authorized to receive specified eligible items under Authorization VEU. A VEU may be listed with one or many eligible facilities, but note that VEUs may own or operate facilities that are not eligible destinations. Facilities owned or operated by VEUs that are not specifically listed as eligible destinations in Supplement No. 7 to Part 748 of the EAR are not eligible to receive items under Authorization VEU.
