DUNS Number Now Required for Federal Contractors

DUNS number now required for federal contractors

The Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) Number is a unique, 9-digit identification number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet. Federal contractors are now required to add the number to their E-Verify Company Profile. New contractors must provide it at enrollment.

Existing federal contractors don’t have to provide the number immediately, but must do so the next time their account is modified; for example, when the primary contact or address is changed, or a hiring location added.
