REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR

DATA UNIVERSAL NUMBERING SYSTEM (DUNS),

NATO COMMERCIAL AND GOVERNMENT ENTITY (NCAGE) CODE

AND

SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (SAM)

1. Background:

To be eligible for an award, all prospective Offerors must have a unique nine digit Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number; a Commercial and Government Entity (Cage)/North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato) = (NCage) Code; and register to System for Award Management (SAM). Refer to FAR 4.605(b). For further guidance see the two attachments at the end of paragraph 4.

Vendors have experienced difficulty registering in SAM. One of the most common issues is inaccurate address validation. SAM first validates that NATO Commercial and Government Entities (NCAGE) and Dun & Bradstreet (DUNS) addresses match. Following that, there is a check that the D&B address matches what the entity has on file with their national central bank (NCB). The NCB address is pulled from the vendor’s primary bank account. Because SAM compares NCAGE and DUNS addresses before comparing DUNS and NCB addresses, entities occasionally correct addresses in both DUNS and NCAGE systems only to find out that they have to change those addresses again to match their NCB address.

NOTE: it is very important that each company/entity register with their fiscal company name and address in DUNS, NCAGE as well as in SAM and without misspelling/typos. The information must match and be exactly the same on all registrations, if not, the process will take a minimum of four months.

2. DUNS Number:

You need a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number to register your entity in SAM.

DUNS numbers are unique for each physical location you want to register.

If you do not have one, you can request a DUNS number for free to do business with the U.S.

Federal government by visiting Dun & Bradstreet (D&B) at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform It takes up to 5 business days to obtain an international DUNS number.

3. NATO Commercial and Government Entity (NCAGE) Code:

Foreign entities must obtain a NCAGE code for each DUNS number they plan to register in SAM before you start the registration process. Make sure the name and address information you provide to get your NCAGE code is the exact same as what you used to get your DUNS number. It takes up to 3 business days.

The direct link to an online NCAGE request form is:

https://eportal.nspa.nato.int/AC135Public/scage/CageList.aspx

4. System for Award Management (SAM) Open an Individual User Account, (be sure to validate your email address to activate the user account), then Login and Register the entity in SAM at – www.sam.gov

Please give yourself plenty of time before your contract application deadline. Allow up to 10 business days after you submit before your registration is active in SAM. For further guidance refer to the following attachments.
