The EDGAR Filing Fee Beta that has allowed the public to test EDGAR changes related to the technical and structured data aspects of the Filing Fee Disclosure and Payment Methods Modernization rule will close on Friday, December 22, 2023. Participants should plan to complete testing and provide feedback through email to FilingFeeBetaFeedback@sec.gov prior to the conclusion of the Filing Fee Beta. SEC staff do not plan to offer an additional EDGAR Filing Fee Beta system ahead of the upcoming compliance dates.

We are assessing interest in having a feedback call in January 2024 with Beta participants after the close of Filing Fee Beta. The purpose of this call would be for SEC Staff to listen to participants’ experience and feedback on the Filing Fee Beta. If you would like to be included on this call, please email us at FilingFeeBetaFeedback@sec.gov before close of business on January 2, 2024. Depending on expressed interest, we will notify participants by January 31, 2024, if a call will be held.

The voluntary compliance period for the Filing Fee Modernization rule will begin January 31, 2024, at which time filers will be able to submit fee bearing filings with structured fee exhibits in EDGAR or unstructured fee exhibits until mandatory compliance begins.
