# §1204.6. What does it cost to get records under the Privacy Act?

- (a) **Must I agree to pay fees?** Your Privacy Act request is your agreement to pay all applicable fees, unless you specify a limit on the amount of fees you agree to pay. FHFA or FHFA-OIG will not exceed the specified limit without your written agreement.
- (b) **How does FHFA or FHFA-OIG calculate fees?** FHFA and FHFA-OIG will charge a fee for duplication of a record under the Privacy Act in the same way it charges for duplication of records under FOIA in [12 CFR 1202.11](/cfr/12/1202.11.md). There are no fees to search for or review records.
