You'll be asked for:

Step 4: Review Search Results

Apple will search Dun & Bradstreet's database.

You may see one of two outcomes:

Option A: Company Found

If your company already has a D-U-N-S Number:

  • The company record will appear.

  • Select the correct company.

  • Click Continue.

  • Apple will send the D-U-N-S Number to your email address.

Option B: Company Not Found

If no matching company is found:

  • Select the option indicating your company isn't listed.

  • Submit your business information.

  • Apple forwards the request to Dun & Bradstreet to create a D-U-N-S Number.


Step 5: Wait for Verification

Typical timelines:

  • Existing D-U-N-S Number: immediate lookup.

  • New D-U-N-S Number request: usually up to 5 business days through Apple's enrollment process.

Please check the email address you shared under Contact Details. Apple will send your D-U-N-S number by email for the record.


Step 6: Verify Information Before Using It

Once you receive the D-U-N-S Number:

  • Ensure the company name and address exactly match the information you'll use in Apple Developer enrollment.

  • If details are incorrect, update them with Dun & Bradstreet before continuing. Apple may reject enrollment if records don't match.


Common Issues

Company not found

  • Try the exact legal company name from your incorporation certificate.

  • Remove abbreviations or alternate spellings.

D-U-N-S Number exists but Apple rejects it

  • Check whether your D&B profile name and address exactly match your Apple enrollment details.

Sole Proprietorship

  • Apple generally requires a legal entity (Private Limited, LLP, Corporation, etc.) for Organization accounts. Sole proprietors should enroll as individuals.
