Agency Fee Waiver Request
Request for waiver or reduction of fees associated with FOIA requests, permit applications, or other agency services based on financial hardship or public interest.
Instructions
Explain how disclosure of the requested information will contribute significantly to public understanding of government operations. Demonstrate that the request is not primarily in the commercial interest of the requester. For non-FOIA fee waivers, document financial hardship or public benefit. Agencies evaluate fee waiver requests on a case-by-case basis using regulatory criteria.
