Annual regulatory fees due Sept. 14

FCC has set September 14, 2011 as the deadline for payment of FY 2011 annual regulatory fees.

As of this date, the FCC has not released a Public Notice officially announcing the deadline for payment of FY 2011 annual regulatory fees.

However, the FCC?s website indicates that the 2011 annual regulatory fees must be paid no later than 11:59 pm (EST) on September 14, 2011.

As reported in July 2010, beginning in 2011, the Commission has discontinued mailing assessment notices to licensees/permittees.

It is the responsibility of each licensee/permittee to determine what fees are due and to pay them in full by the deadline.

Information pertaining to the annual regulatory fees is available online at http://transition.fcc.gov/fees/regfees.html.
