About Form D and Blue Sky State Filings

Form D is used to file a notice of an exempt offering of securities with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Form D includes the names and addresses of the company’s promoters, executive officers and directors, and some details about the offering. Commission rules require the notice to be filed by companies and funds that have sold securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in an offering based on a claim of exemption under Rule 504, 505 or 506 of Regulation D or Section 4(5) of that statute. Form D is submitted to the SEC through the EDGAR system.

Many states have "Blue Sky" securities regulations that require the filing of Form D notices and amendments, and most of them charge a filing fee. Most states allow for either electronic or paper Form D filing, with the majority of states accepting and a few states mandating the electronic filing of Form D. Beginning December 2014, electronic filing of Form D notices can be made through the Electronic Filing Depository (EFD), which is programmed with each state's filing requirements.
