Unleash the power of your data to make better decisions and maximise performance

The D-U-N-S Number is a unique nine-digit identification sequence, which provides unique identifiers of single business entities, while linking corporate family structures together.

D&B links the D-U-N-S Numbers of parents, subsidiaries, headquarters and branches on more than  million corporate family members around the world. Used by the world's most influential standards-setting organisations, it is recognised, recommended and/or required by more than 50 global, industry and trade associations, including the United Nations, the U.S. Federal Government, the Australian Government and the European Commission.

In today's global economy, the D-U-N-S Number has become the standard for keeping track of the world's businesses.

This means that you can have confidence in the quality of information you use to manage your business.
