Organizations must go to SAM.gov, not Dun & Bradstreet, to obtain their Unique Entity ID (SAM).

· Have you registered with SAM.gov? Yes/No (This is mandatory for grants over $24,000.)

All grantees must annually update SAM registration and have a Unique Entity ID (SAM) to receive funding from the U.S. government. Visit www.SAM.gov and the Embassy website (ru.usembassy.gov) for instructions.
