ESPD/DUAE FAQ

The European Single Procurement Document (ESPD), known as DUAE in Romanian, is a standardized self-declaration form used across the EU. It replaces the need to provide full certificates and documents at the bidding stage.

Yes. Since 2016, the ESPD is mandatory for all above-threshold EU public procurement procedures. Contracting authorities must accept it, and bidders must provide it with their tenders.

Partially. Parts I (company information) and III (exclusion grounds) are usually the same. Parts II and IV (selection criteria) vary by tender. Tendersight auto-fills your reusable data across all bids.

Errors in the ESPD can lead to bid rejection. Common mistakes include not declaring all exclusion grounds, providing outdated financial data, or missing required certifications. Our guide helps you avoid these pitfalls.
