U.S. Digital Registry

What is the U.S. Digital Registry?

Whether for access to emergency, financial or education public services, users need to trust they are engaging with official U.S. government digital accounts.

The U.S. Digital Registry serves as the authoritative resource for agencies, citizens and developers to confirm the official status of social media and public-facing collaboration accounts, mobile apps and mobile websites, and help prevent exploitation from unofficial sources, phishing scams or malicious entities.

How to Access the U.S. Digital Registry

Register and Manage Accounts

Accessing the U.S. Digital Registry requires an OMB Max ID, which is available to federal government employees and contractors with a valid .gov, .mil, or .fed.us email address. Register for an OMB Max ID if you need one.

Browse and Export the U.S. Digital Registry

Please browse or export data on accounts currently authenticated by federal agencies using the U.S. Digital Registry by:

• Federal Agency
• English or Spanish language
• Platform, such a Github, Facebook and Yelp
• Tags, as self-identified by agencies

For customer service on accounts, please contact their programs directly.

What's "Official"?

The U.S. Digital Registry only includes accounts that represent official U.S. government agencies, organizations, or programs — the collection grows daily. You can register accounts managed by federal agencies, heads of agencies or members of the President’s Cabinet. Do not enter personal, employee, or other types of accounts.
