FCC Correction to VRS Call Validation Rules
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This rule fixes a technical error in the Code of Federal Regulations by restoring text on how video relay service providers must validate users for each call. VRS providers must check the eligibility of the person on the video side of each call through the TRS User Registration Database or TRS Numbering Directory, unless the call is an emergency 911 call. The change is administrative and restores existing regulatory text rather than creating a new compliance program.
