Number versus Registered product
The number identifies a business record. The Registered offering provides ways to display business-profile information, including a website seal. Check which product has actually been supplied to your business.
Before displaying a seal
Confirm the current product terms, permitted use and profile details with D&B. Do not create your own D&B seal or present an ordinary number as proof that you purchased the Registered offering.
Questions to ask before ordering
- Am I seeking only an identifier, or a profile-display product?
- What is included in the quotation?
- What are the applicable usage terms?
- Who will correct the business details if they change?

Frequently asked questions
Does having a D-U-N-S Number include a D-U-N-S Registered seal?
Do not assume that it does. D-U-N-S Registered is a separate D&B offering involving a business profile and seal. Confirm the product scope with D&B.
Can MASTERSTAP issue a D-U-N-S Number?
No. Only Dun & Bradstreet issues and manages the number. MASTERSTAP offers independent document preparation and application guidance, with no D&B authorization or affiliation claimed.
