The Carrier Recovery Fee is a charge implemented by telecommunications providers to recover costs associated with compliance with government-imposed regulatory requirements. This fee is not a tax or charge required by the government but allows providers to offset expenses related to:
Federal regulatory fees and programs
Connection charges
Account maintenance fees
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) mandates that carriers pay annual regulatory fees to cover the costs of the Commission's activities, including enforcement, policy and rulemaking, user information services, and international initiatives. Telecommunications companies often implement recovery fees to recoup these expenses.
For more detailed information on regulatory fees, you can visit the FCC's official page: fcc.gov
