More Information

State law requires regulated utility and transportation companies to file annual reports and pay regulatory fees to The Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC). If you operated at any time during the reporting year, you are required to file an annual report.

File early to make sure you have enough time to fix any issues. Submitting your report does not mean it is considered complete.

File the correct annual report form by industry.
