If the slab is PT, I would definitely consult a structural engineer prior to any drilling.
If the slab is CIP, probably not. Depends what the jurisdiction wants. However, I would still try to locate the reinforcing steel and miss it. Stay away from columns and the center of slab spans. Near the quarter of the spans would be a likely candidate area.

mm = millimetre | ml = millilitre

Are you a structural engineer?
