The EO implementing regulations authorize the Agency and other federal agencies to collect fees for EO declassification requests submitted directly to them, and the costs are the same as those specified for FOIA requests. As a matter of administrative discretion, the CIA does not assess fees for EO declassification requests. Requesters, however, are responsible for any reproduction or other costs required by statute or regulation when submitting through Presidential libraries or NARA.
Under the EO, there are no fee provisions for historical researchers and former Presidential appointees
