To get a UEI for your organization, you’ll need to visit https://sam.gov/content/entity-registration and select “Get Started”. The only information needed to obtain a UEI is your entity's name and address.
In most cases, your organization will need a UEI (Unique Entity Identifier) to do business with the US federal government. A UEI is a unique identifier assigned to your business based on its registered name and address. A UEI is typically 12 characters in length and contains both letters and numbers.
If you wish to become a prime contractor and do business directly with the US federal government, you’ll be required to get both a UEI and complete an entity registration. Registering your entity is a much more involved and time-consuming process.
