## Abstract

The Common Carrier Bureau adopted a revised filing manual for international traffic data. The new manual has a separate section that consolidates the filing requirements for pure resale carriers. While the new manual did not change these requirements, the consolidated section will make it easier for small businesses which primarily provide pure resale service to report. The new manual did change the reporting requirements for facilities based traffic, which is primarily provided by large businesses. In order to protect U.S. carriers' interests, the new manual allows carriers to report some information on a proprietary basis. Both facilities-based and pure resale carriers must use this manual to report message counts, minute counts, gross revenues, international settlements amounts, and retained revenues for international communications services. The manual was adopted June 6, 1995 and approved by OMB.
