The new tool, which was created by the Filing Fees Branch in the SEC's Office of Financial Management and can be found here, is aimed at improving the accuracy of fee calculations and minimizing the need for corrections. Registration Fee Estimator covers common filings firms use to register initial public offerings, debt offerings, asset-backed securities, closed-end mutual funds, limited partnerships, and small business investment companies.

Users are prompted by the tool to enter data based on the type of filing and the applicable fee rules. The tool offers suggestions for completing required fee tables based on the data entered.

While the tool is meant to assist filers, the Office of Financial Management stated in the release it can't be relied upon as an official SEC calculation and verification of the filing fees.

There are also plans for future versions of the tool to feature additional types of filings, including those filed annually by investment companies.
