Very low-value negotiated procedure 

We sometimes award a small number of external translation assignments through a negotiated procedure (a simplified procurement process used for very low-value contracts, where candidates may be invited directly to submit an offer).

If you would like to be considered, you can ask to be included in our database of potential contractors. 
Please send your CV (in English) to: DGT-FL-FREE-CANDIDATEatec [dot] europa [dot] eu (DGT-FL-FREE-CANDIDATE[at]ec[dot]europa[dot]eu)

You can apply if you are:

  • an individual (private person/natural person), or
  • an organisation or company (legal person) 

Participation in a negotiated procedure is open to all natural and legal persons falling within the scope of the EU Treaties. This includes all Union citizens, all natural persons having their domicile in the Union and all legal persons registered in the Union.

We  will only contact you if your language combinations, qualifications and experience match our needs. We may then ask you to provide additional documents to complete your application.
