Direct deposit (EFT) impacts every federal government vendor regardless of the size of the company or the goods or services provided. If you are not already doing so, you will need to arrange to receive payments and payment-related information electronically.</p> <p>If you or your financial institution have any questions about vendor payments or the electronic delivery of payments (ACH/EFT/Direct Deposit), or other questions related to federal payments, please contact the Fiscal Service Payments Call Center at <a href="tel:+18558680151">1-855-868-0151</a>, Option 2. You can also get answers by visiting <a href="/pirs/i-want-to.html" target="_blank">https://fiscal.treasury.gov/pirs/i-want-to.html</a>.</p> <h2 class="large semibold">Vendor Payments Policy</h2> <p>The EFT rule (31 CFR Part 208) requires that most federal payments be made electronically. Waivers are available to agencies and to individual recipients, however, no waivers are available to vendors. As a result, any vendor of the Federal government is required to receive payment by direct deposit (electronic funds transfer (EFT)).</p> <ul class="no-marker"> <li><a href="/files/eft/regulations/31cfr208final.pdf" target="_blank">Read 31 CFR Part 208</a></li> <li><a href="/files/eft/lettertovendorsonpaymentguidance.pdf" target="_blank">Letter to Vendors about payment guidance</a></li> <li><a href="/files/agency-priority-goal/sf3881.pdf" target="_blank">SF Form 3881, ACH Vendor/Miscellaneous Payment Enrollment Form</a></li> </ul> <p>Please contact the federal agency that will issue a payment to you and work with them to establish the EFT Direct Deposit.

To receive electronic payments through the ACH for vendor payments, you are required to enroll with each federal agency with which you do business.</p> <p>The ACH Vendor/Miscellaneous Payment Enrollment Form requires you to provide the federal agency your financial institution information (account number and routing number) so the funds can be deposited electronically to your account.</p> <p>This process is referred to as Financial Electronic Data Interchange or Financial EDI. Financial EDI is used by thousands of businesses daily to exchange payments, payment information, or financial documents in standard formats.</p> </v-box> </h-box> </content-lock> </section> <section> <content-lock> <h-box> <v-box> <h2 class="semibold large">Financial Institutions & Delivery of Payment-Related Information</h2> <p>The rules that govern the ACH system address the delivery of payment-related information. Upon your request, financial institutions must provide you with the payment-related information by the opening of the second business day after the payment posts to your account.</p> <p>This rule impacts <strong>all</strong> financial institutions processing ACH payments. Financial institutions considered to be "EDI capable" have the means to translate the payment-related information as the payment posts to your account and provide the information to you via a paper report, fax, e-mail, or through an electronic transmission.</p> <h2 class="semibold large">Questions to Ask Your Financial Institution</h2> <p>You should contact your financial institution prior to enrolling for electronic payments to discuss the delivery of the payment-related information. Depending on the type of account you have (corporate/business or consumer/retail), you may need to determine the appropriate area within your financial institution to contact. This could be the local branch that you do business with or the corporate cash management contact at the headquarters office or operations center. Here are several questions to ask your financial institution:</p> <dl> <dt><strong>Can you provide payment-related information that may accompany electronic payments to my account?</strong></dt> <dd>Your financial institution may have a package of services available from which you can choose the best method for receiving the payment-related information.</dd> </dl> <dl> <dt><strong>How can you provide this payment-related information to me?</strong></dt> <dd>Paper, fax, electronic reports, or e-mail are acceptable means to be considered "EDI capable" and to be in compliance with the ACH rule change.</dd> </dl> <dl> <dt><strong>How quickly can you provide the payment-related information to me after the electronic payment posts to my account?</strong></dt> <dd>By the opening of business on the second business day following the settlement date of the payment is acceptable and is in compliance with the ACH rule change.</dd> </dl> <dl> <dt><strong>Is there a cost for providing this information?</strong></dt> <dd>Financial institutions have different fee schedules for different services and the cost may be determined by your account type. There may be costs associated with setup, per report delivery, and per addenda or character translation.</dd> </dl> <p>If your financial institution charges too much for payment-related data, you may be able to access this by data on the internet by enrolling in payment notification services provided by <a href="https://www.ipp.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Internet Payment
