DRAFT EDGAR Reg A XML Technical Specification (Version 1)

Implementation Date: May 11, 2015

This draft EDGAR Reg A XML Technical Specification, posted before Commission approval of potential regulatory changes in this release, is provided as a service to our filing community to assist filers, agents, and software developers in their preparation of responses to potential changes the staff anticipates. Since this is a draft technical specification, the SEC retains the right to change any part of the technical specification before the new system release is made final. In addition, the final Reg A XML Technical Specification is subject to Commission approval and may be revised before approval or not approved at all. Similarly, the posting of the draft technical specification does not indicate Commission approval of any pending proposed changes relating to the potential changes reflected in the draft technical specification. The changes outlined in this draft technical specification, if approved, are scheduled to take effect on the Rule Effective date. See SEC Final Rules posted on the SEC's Public Website for information on the Rule Effective date. The final version of the technical specification will be made available if approved by the Commission on or about May 11, 2015, on the SEC's Public Website.

The EDGAR Reg A XML Technical Specification document describes the valid structure and content of the Reg A Extensible Markup Language (XML) submission types.
