The EDGAR Next Enrollment Process
April 4, 2025
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is transitioning electronic filers from EDGAR to a more secure filing platform, which is referred to as EDGAR Next. Persons who have previously made filings electronically with the SEC should consider enrolling in EDGAR Next during the enrollment period, which began on March 24, 2025 and will end on December 19, 2025. Enrollment is a streamlined process that allows existing EDGAR filers (i.e., pre-March 24, 2025) to transition to EDGAR Next without completing the amended Form ID, which will be required for all new EDGAR filers after March 24, 2025.
This publication provides a flowchart and notes to facilitate the EDGAR Next enrollment process.
