# List filing schedules

> The filing_periods.schedules operation: GET /api/v1/filing_schedules in the REST API and the filing_periods_schedules tool in the MCP server.

The filing schedule of each of the entity's registrations that files returns (registered, in a grace period or
deregistered), or that has periods or a schedule of its own, in the mode of the request (spec §21.1).

A schedule is the regime's filing spec (frequency and due rule, from the knowledge base) unless an operator
set one on the registration with `filing_periods.set_schedule` (the frequency and stagger the tax authority
assigned, and a due rule where the spec's can't be computed). `problem` says why no periods can be generated
(`due_other`, `frequency_varies`: set a schedule; `no_filing_spec`: the knowledge base has no filing rules for
the regime yet). `nextPeriodStart` and `nextDueAt` are the earliest period still to file.
