This document provides step-by-step instructions for international entities to designate an Entity Administrator in the System for Award Management (SAM). The process differs based on whether the entity uses banking information from a U.S. financial institution. Key steps include:

  1. Selecting the appropriate template (Template 1 or Template 3) based on banking information usage
  2. Completing the template on entity letterhead
  3. Signing the document with an authorized representative
  4. Scanning and submitting the document online through the Federal Service Desk (FSD) website
  5. Mailing the original signed document to the Federal Service Desk in London, Kentucky within 45 days of activation

The document provides detailed guidance on creating an FSD.gov account, submitting a web form, and attaching the Designation of Entity Administrator document. The process ensures proper registration and administrator designation for international entities seeking to do business with the U.S. government.
