# FCC Form 499 API Client
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Python client for interacting with the FCC Form 499 Filer Database API.
|
||
|
|

|
This client provides a simple interface to search the database of telecommunications carriers, interconnected VoIP providers, and other providers of interstate telecommunications.
|
||
|
|

||
|
|
## Overview

||
|
|
The FCC Form 499 Filer Database is an identification system for all interstate telecommunications carriers, all interconnected VoIP providers, and certain other providers of interstate telecommunications. These providers are required to register with the Commission using the Telecommunications Reporting Worksheet (FCC Form 499-A) and update their registration on a periodic basis.
