What to do
Someone wants to buy. Read the official notice for the full specification, eligibility rules, bid bond, delivery terms and submission method. Bid only through the channel named in the official notice – never pay a 'registration', 'facilitation' or 'procedure' fee to a third party who claims to represent the buyer.
⚠️ Due diligence before any deal

- Verify the counterparty's company registration, address, website domain and bank independently.
- Screen all parties against sanctions lists (UN, OFAC, EU, UK) and check export/import licences.
- Use independent inspection (quality & quantity) and secure payment such as a confirmed L/C – never pay advance fees to unknown parties.
- Put everything in a written contract with Incoterms® 2020, specs, inspection, payment and dispute terms.
