How to find the Dynamic Small Business Search Number (DSBS#)

by Stuart Lander

I noticed that a huge number of 8A applicants are visiting this blog and trying to find out what the DSBS# / Dynamic Small Business Search Number is.  The number is needed on the 8A application form.  Thanks to a comment left by Brisa Tapia in a post I wrote on the Dynamic Small Business Search the mystery can be revealed.  With Brisa’s permission, here’s what you have to do:

-Go to http://www.ccr.gov
-Click on ‘Dynamic Small Business Search’
-Search for the firm’s profile using the DUNS, or Company Name, or CAGE #, etc.
-Open the firm’s profile
-You will see the SBA Customer ID Number in the url (at the top of the page where the internet link is display. I.E., http://www…..)
-The SBA Customer ID Number is at the end of the link and normally starts with a “P” and follow with around 7 numbers (i.e., P0123456)
