What is SE?

Form SE accompanies exhibits that an electronic filer submits in paper rather than on EDGAR, as permitted under Regulation S-T hardship exemptions. EDGAR titles it "Form SE - Exhibits".

Recent filers are largely foreign governments and their agencies submitting exhibits to registration statements. The documents on EDGAR are usually scanned images.

Who files

Electronic filers submitting an exhibit in paper under a hardship exemption, recently mostly foreign sovereign issuers.

When it is filed

Together with or after the related electronic filing, when the paper exhibit is submitted.

FAQ

Why would a filer use paper?

Regulation S-T allows hardship exemptions when an exhibit cannot be filed electronically.

Is the exhibit searchable?

Usually not, because it is a scanned image.
