There shall be a review charge for each and every communication, whether in printed, video or other form, filed with or submitted to FINRA, except for items that are filed or submitted in response to a written request from FINRA's Advertising Regulation Department ("the Department") issued pursuant to the spot check procedures set forth in FINRA rules, as follows: (1) for printed or website material reviewed, $125.00, plus $10.00 for each printed page or webpage reviewed in excess of 10 pages; and (2) for video or audio media, $125.00, plus $10.00 per minute for each minute of tape reviewed in excess of 10 minutes.

Where a member requests expedited review of material submitted to the Department there shall be a review charge of $600.00 per item plus $50.00 for each printed page or webpage reviewed in excess of 10 pages. Expedited review shall be completed within three business days, not including the date the item is received by the Department, unless a shorter or longer period is agreed to by the Department. The Department may, in its sole discretion, refuse requests for expedited review.
