Each telecommunications service provider required to register
with the commission pursuant to Iowa Code section
476.95A shall register with the
commission annually thereafter. Registration shall be completed electronically
as provided by the commission. If a telecommunications service provider is not
required to register, the telecommunications service provider shall file an
annual report in compliance with 199-Chapter 23.
(1) The commission shall issue an
acknowledgment of registration within five business days of receipt of a
provider's completed application for registration. Such acknowledgment shall
authorize the applicant to obtain telephone numbers, interconnect with other
telecommunications service providers, cross railroad rights-of-way pursuant to
Iowa Code section 476.27, and provide
telecommunications services within the state.
(2) Registration may be transferred to
another telecommunications service provider by filing a new or updated
registration form. The commission shall serve an acknowledgment of the new
registration within five business days of receipt.
(3) Registration is required even though a
telecommunications service provider has a certificate of public convenience and
necessity issued prior to July 1, 2018, and the provider retains the rights
conferred by that certificate.
(4)
Telecommunications service providers that have not previously provided
telecommunications service in Iowa shall register with the commission prior to
providing telecommunications service in Iowa.
(5) Telecommunications service providers
shall include with the registration a list of the exchanges where the
telecommunications service provider offers telecommunications service, if
applicable. A telecommunications service provider shall file an amended

the contact information on the registration changes.
