Foreign registrants in CCR must have a NATO Commercial and Governmental Entity (NCAGE) Code assigned. If your organization does not already have an NCAGE assigned, for most countries you can obtain one using the form shown below. If you cannot submit this form by Internet, you can obtain an NCAGE by contacting the National Codification Bureau of the country where your organization is located. For a list of addresses, go to http://www.dlis.dla.mil/nato_poc.asp.  Note to U.S. submitters: Organizations with an address containing APO, FPO, or AE do not need an NCAGE assigned by an Allied Nation and should not fill out this form. Instead, register in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) system at www.ccr.gov and you will receive a U.S. CAGE Code.    

Companies shall be allowed to apply directly to NCBs for NCAGE Code assignments.

When you select a country in block 2 to send this form to, after you click on the "Submit" button at the bottom of the form, it will be automatically routed by e-mail to that country for processing. If you put an e-mail address in Block 1 of the request form, you will receive a copy of the request by e-mail when you submit the form.

To request an NCAGE from a country other than the countries listed in the block 2, connect to the non-NATO NCAGE tool at http://nmcrlplus.namsa.nato.int. That site is hosted by the NATO Maintenance and Supply Agency (NAMSA) in Luxembourg. When you get to that Web site, click on the "CAGE Code Request" tab and follow the instructions. The first screen you will come to will allow you to check to see if an NCAGE is already assigned to the company that you require an NCAGE for. If your search does not find an existing NCAGE, click on the tab called "Request New CAGE" at the bottom of the search results screen. Follow the instructions provided on the Web site. After you submit your request, you will automatically receive: 1) a request confirmation/validation e-mail message and 2) a second e-mail message once the CAGE request is processed (assignment of the code or reject of the request).

You may use this form to make requests for NCAGE assignments from the United States only if your company or organization is located outside the U.S. If your company or organization is located inside the US, or if you are located at a U.S. military facility overseas, you should make your request by registering your company with CCR at www.ccr.gov. Send a message to the Battle Creek Customer Contact Center via email: dlacontactcenter@dla.mil or phone 269-961-7766 if you have questions. Note: CAGE codes for U.S. territories like Guam, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, American Somoa, Northern Mariana Islands and Palau will be assigned by the U.S by registering in CCR.
