Who Needs a DUNS Number?

A DUNS number may be useful if your company needs to prove that it is a real, verifiable business. Companies often request a DUNS number when they need it for:

  • Exporting to the United States when an importer, distributor, or partner asks for business verification.
  • FDA food facility registration when the company chooses to use a DUNS number as its Unique Facility Identifier.
  • Marketplaces, platforms, or vendor systems that ask for a company identifier.
  • Business credit, B2B verification, or supplier onboarding.
  • International business relationships where the buyer wants to confirm company information before doing business.

A DUNS number does not replace your tax ID, FDA registration, FEI number, or other regulatory obligations. It is a company identifier issued by Dun & Bradstreet.

The FDA Angle: How a DUNS Number Can Be Used for Food Facility Registration

The FDA accepts a DUNS number as the Unique Facility Identifier, or UFI, for food facility registration.

This is important for food companies because the DUNS number can help identify the business location connected to the facility registration. However, the DUNS number itself is not issued by the FDA.

Simple difference:

  • DUNS number: A company or location identifier issued by Dun & Bradstreet.
  • FEI number: An FDA Establishment Identifier connected to FDA systems.
  • UFI: The role the identifier plays in FDA food facility registration.

A DUNS number can be used as the UFI, but that does not mean the DUNS number is the FDA registration itself.

DUNS, FEI, and UFI — What Is the Difference?

These identifiers are often confused, but they are not the same.

DUNS Number

  • Issued by Dun & Bradstreet.
  • Identifies a business location.
  • Used for business verification, vendor onboarding, credit profile, platforms, and as a UFI for FDA food facility registration.

FEI Number

  • Connected to FDA systems.
  • Used by FDA to identify establishments in certain regulatory contexts.
  • Not the same as a DUNS number.

UFI

  • Means Unique Facility Identifier.
  • For FDA food facility registration, the DUNS number can serve as the UFI.
  • UFI is a role. DUNS is the identifier that can be used for that role.

Important: A DUNS number does not replace FDA registration. It does not replace an FEI number. It does not replace an EIN, tax ID, or import permit.
