As of January 14, 2022, exporters and sellers will be unable to receive payment guarantees, and U.S. financial institutions will be unable to take assignment of guarantees, if not in compliance with this requirement. This provision replaces the requirement to submit a Dun & Bradstreet (DUNS) number for program participation as referenced in 7 CFR 1493.30(a)(1)(ii) for exporters and 7 CFR 1493.40(a)(2) for U.S. financial institutions. If your entity is currently registered in SAM.gov, your Unique Entity ID (SAM UEI) has already been assigned and is viewable in SAM.gov. The UEI is currently located below the DUNS Number on your entity registration record. If you are a new applicant, your UEI will be assigned to you when you register in SAM.gov. The requirements to register in SAM.gov and to obtain a UEI can be found in 2 CRF Part 25. For questions or further information, see the SAM regulations at 2 CFR Part 25 or contact the Operations and Analysis Branch of the Foreign Agricultural Service at (202) 720-6211 or by email at [email protected].
