“Price” of RTS 22? Should DLT transaction fees be included in the price related fields?\n\n***\n\n### Answer\n\nIrrespective of whether an exemption from reporting was granted or not, DLT MTFs should not include DLT transaction fees in the price information, they should not be treated as commissions. Therefore Field 33 “Price” should reflect only the traded price of the transaction.\n\n***\n\n**Source:** [ESMA original document](https://www.esma.europa.eu/publications-data/questions-answers/782)\n"}
