Obtaining a DUNS Number

A DUNS number is a unique nine-character number used to identify an organization and is issued by Dun & Bradstreet. The federal government uses the DUNS number to track how federal money is allocated. A DUNS number is required prior to registering with the SAM database, which is outlined below. Registering for a DUNS number is free of charge.

An entity that does not have a valid DUNS number should visit https://fedgov.dnb.com/webform/ or call 1-866-705-5711 to begin the registration process.

Registering For a Sam.Gov Account

All Federal financial assistance recipients must have an active registration with the System for Award Management (SAM) database at SAM.gov.  SAM is the official government-wide database with which to register in order to do business with the U.S. government. All Federal financial assistance recipients must register on SAM.gov and renew their SAM registration annually to maintain an active status to be eligible to receive Federal financial assistance. There is no charge to register or maintain an entity’s SAM registration.

An entity that does not have an active SAM registration should visit SAM.gov to begin the entity registration or renewal process. Please note that completing a new SAM.gov registration can take up to three weeks.
