Split Q5 into retail vs wholesale variants

Browse source 
Retail carriers: ask where end-user customers are located, explain
state PUC nexus (registration triggered by customer location, not
incorporation). Wholesale carriers: simplified question about carrier
customer regions, explains they generally don't need state PUC
registration since the retail carrier holds the state obligation.

<p class="q-hint">Most states require telecom providers to register with the state Public Utilities Commission (PUC) wherever they have customers — not just where you're incorporated. This is because your service uses local infrastructure (switches, towers, numbers) in each state where it terminates.</p>

About 27 states require full certification and tariff filing (CA, NY, PA, FL, IL, etc.), ~9 require registration only, and a handful (TX, UT, VA, WY) have minimal requirements. You don't need to register in all 50 states on day one — start with the states where you'll have customers, then expand as you grow. We handle state PUC filings at $399/state.
