How to bid. Get SDVOSB certified through the SBA’s Veteran Small Business Certification (VetCert) program — certification moved from the VA to the SBA in 2023 — and register in SAM.gov.

How do I get SDVOSB certified?

A VOSB is veteran-owned; an SDVOSB is owned by a veteran with a service-connected disability, which unlocks additional set-asides.
