Wireless Fee Filing Guide


The authority for the Federal Communications Commission to impose and collect fees and associated charges is contained in Title III, § 3001 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989 (Public Law 101-39), § 8, revising 47 U.S.C. § 158, which directs the Commission to prescribe charges for certain types of services it provides to communications entities over which it has jurisdiction.

This Fee Filing Guide is considered a reference guide to identify and describe the entire fee filing requirements for the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau. It is meant to be a handy reference of the services and requests for FCC actions that are subject to a fee. The guide contains a breakdown of the types of applications, form numbers, fee amounts, payment type codes, and the mailing address for each service provided.
