RoboCalling enforcement is days away for voice providers worldwide
How Voice Carriers Can Survive Imminent Regulatory Challenges, Law Enforcement Risks, and Killer Fines
Join CCA & The CommLaw Group on May 24, 2022 for a webinar that will provide a roadmap to guide your company through the treacherous waters of STIR/SHAKEN compliance and show you how to avoid enforcement actions and prevent consumer lawsuits. This applies to providers large and small from both the US and overseas.
Imminent FCC Compliance Deadline
The FCC’s STIR/SHAKEN compliance goes into effect on June 30, 2022. Large and small providers and carriers from both the US and overseas face large penalties if they are not ready to go on June 30th.
This webinar will cover:
– which carriers are affected by the new deadline;
– step-by-step instructions for full compliance;
– what to do if your company cannot meet the deadline; and
– the severe consequences for non-compliance, and how to avoid them.
Vendors, suppliers, and terminating carriers have an important role in the robocall mitigation ecosystem. Downstream carriers, for example, are required to block calls by carriers who have not demonstrated compliance and notified the FCC.
