      Dependencies and Areas of Special Sovereignty

      1. The following chart shows Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) codes for Dependencies and Areas of Special Sovereignty. These codes should be used when processing certification requests when the applicant specifies one of these dependencies.

      2. When the dependency's FIPS code is not valid, contact the HQ analyst via your P&A analyst..

      3. The U.S. does not have treaties with dependencies. Therefore an applicant for a certification for a dependency must provide an explanation on Form 8802, Line 9, Purpose for Certification, as to why certification is being requested.

        Note:

        Applications that do not specify purpose will be entered on the database and letter 3428 must be issued.
