Background
This is a unique five-character code that is assigned to suppliers of products and services used by federal agencies which identifies a facility at a particular location. The first and last characters are numerals and the remaining characters can be numerals or any letter except for I or O.
The Defense Logistics Information Service (DLIS), who administers the CAGE Code system, has a CAGE Code search feature on the internet that will help you determine if a code has been previously assigned to your organization.
For those not listed in the database, the CAGE request process is incorporated into the CCR registration. Therefore, your company will be assigned a CAGE Code during the processing of your registration. Notification of the activation of your CCR registration will be sent via email to the CCR Primary and Alternate Points of Contact. Once your registration is active, you can view your CAGE Code on the web by searching the active registrations, as long as you have not opted out of public display, or by logging in to your account.
The Defense Logistics Information Service (DLIS) in Battle Creek, Michigan, is the only authorized source of CAGE Codes. CAGE Codes will be assigned to registrants as their CCR registration goes through the validation process.
Note: Registrants that require a CAGE Code for a Security Clearance or for the assignment of a DODAAC
Code do not need to go through CCR. They can submit the request on the DoD Form 2051, "Request for Assignment of a Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Code". Section A must be filled out and signed by their sponsoring government agency. The agency may also request the CAGE Code on their agency letterhead.
Note: Foreign organizations that perform work outside the United States are required to register in CCR in order to receive a contract. They must first obtain a North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) CAGE (NCAGE) Code from the appropriate source. The NCAGE Code can be obtained directly from the Codification Bureau in their country.
Please view the up-to-date list of countries and the information necessary to contact the Codification Bureau by visiting their web site.
