Government providers¶
If you’re a government provider, this section provides information on how you can prepare to provide listings.
Prepare to provide listings from accounts in U.S. government regions¶
If your account is in a U.S. government region and you want to install data products offered privately or on the Snowflake Marketplace, or offer listings either privately or on the Snowflake Marketplace, you must review and acknowledge the following cross-region disclaimer for your organization.
Important
To get data products and share listings with Snowflake customers outside your region, Snowflake shares organization and account metadata and usage analytics with the customers you collaborate with outside of your region.
Compliance standards, such as FedRAMP, and support for different regulated workloads, such as ITAR, might be different or unavailable outside of your U.S. Government Region. Consider your compliance requirements before choosing to move or share data between Snowflake regions.
Note
You must use the ORGADMIN role to accept the terms. You only need to accept terms once for your Snowflake account. If you do not have the ORGADMIN role, see Enabling the ORGADMIN role in an account.
Sign in to Snowsight.
In the navigation menu, select Admin » Billing & Terms.
In the Snowflake Marketplace section, for Sharing & Collaboration, select Review & Enable.
Review the cross-region disclaimer and select Acknowledge & Continue.
Select Done.
Note
Providers can enable Egress Cost Optimizer (ECO) in a primary account in any commercial region and create listings targeted to any other region, including government regions.
By default, ECO is unavailable to customers on a government cloud. If you’re a Gov customer, you can reach out to your Snowflake account executive for more information about ECO enablement.
You must use the ORGADMIN role and you only need to complete this step once for your organization:
Sign in to Snowsight.
In the navigation menu, select Admin » Terms.
In the Snowflake Marketplace section, for Sharing & Collaboration, select Review & Enable.
Review the cross-region disclaimer and select Acknowledge & Continue.
Select Done.
Note
If you see an error, your user profile might be missing some contact information. If you have an administrator role, see Add user details to your user profile to update your profile using Snowsight. Otherwise, contact an account administrator to update your user details.
Stop sharing and collaboration from an account in a US government region¶
If you no longer want to offer or access listings from your account in a US government region, do the following:
Delete all of your listings shared from your account, consistent with the applicable requirements in the Provider and Consumer Terms.
Stop consuming listings by dropping the databases imported when you accessed listings.
Contact Snowflake Support to have data sharing and collaboration disabled for your organization.
Limitations for providing listings from accounts in U.S. government regions¶
If you provide listings from an account in a U.S. government region, the following limitations apply:
You cannot offer paid or personalized listings.
You must use Cross-Cloud Auto-Fulfillment, and your data product can only contain objects supported for auto-fulfillment.
Additional considerations apply to providers in non-US-government regions who want to offer listings to accounts in US government regions. See Considerations for sharing listings to accounts in US government regions.

If your account is in a Europe and Middle East region, specifically Dammam (me-central2), and you want to install data products offered privately or on the Snowflake Marketplace, or offer listings either privately or on the Snowflake Marketplace, you must review and acknowledge the following cross-region disclaimer for your organization.
