I hate the way they nickel and dime us with all this paperwork, also the surveillance state that makes me worry all this information will be used against us at some point.
But first I would check if your company ever responded in the past, if so you may not need to do anything. If not, I’d just go ahead and do it. It seems to be about a 5 minute task and it’s one-and-done, you can ignore the notices in the future unless something you already have in your network goes on the “covered” list. I don’t see how we’d acquire something new on the covered list since it can’t get FCC approval and can’t be imported.

It’s more of an online form you submit. In our case, it looks like we filed in February 2022 for the year ending December 2021 and stated we had no “covered equipment”. If I read the instructions correctly, once you’ve done that, you don’t need to file annually unless you actually acquire some “covered equipment”. If you’ve got a bunch of Huawei and ZTE equipment (or a few others), things are different.

I dont recall dealing with this, but we keep getting notices.
