Supplier Portal
Welcome to the DFDS Supplier Information Portal
This platform provides our suppliers with key information, policies, and tools to facilitate seamless collaboration and ensure compliance with DFDS procurement and invoicing standards.
Supplier onboarding
This section is designed to guide you through the onboarding process, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience. You will also find our Terms of Purchase outlining the steps and procedures to ensure smooth and efficient transactions.
When onboarded as a supplier:
Your DFDS contact will initiate a supplier creation process once agreed on a collaboration.
A pre-filled form is sent to add required information to create you in our systems under the correct legal entity. If you are already registered for one legal entity but intends to supply for another, you must also be registered under the new legal entity.
Once approved, DFDS can place a Purchase Order. In general, we will not make purchases without a Purchase Order. Exceptions may apply.
More details on how to submit invoices to DFDS can be found in the section about ‘Invoice and Payment information’.
