EU TED Tenders: Official Public Procurement Notices

Use this to search official EU TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) notices from the public TED Search API v3. Each row has the title (English when published), publication date, buyer country, NUTS code, notice type, contract type, procedure, estimated or award value when present, buyer name, CPV codes, tender deadline, and TED HTML/PDF links. Filter by keyword, CPV, country and date. $0.002 per notice.

No scraping of ted.europa.eu: every row comes from the official TED API. No login and no API key.

• 🇪🇺 Official EU procurement notices published in the Supplement to the Official Journal (OJ S)
• 🔎 Keyword, CPV and country filters (ISO-3 buyer country, e.g. DEU, FRA, ITA) plus a publication-date window
• 🏷️ Notice type and contract type decoded (contract notice vs award notice; works / supplies / services)
• 💶 Estimated or award value when TED publishes one (often missing — the cell stays empty)
• 📄 Clickable TED HTML and PDF links on every row
• 💸 $0.002 per notice; runs with no matches are free

Who it's for

• GovCon, capture and BD teams selling into Europe: see what public buyers are tendering this week in your CPV
• EU suppliers and SMEs: watch contract notices in your country and sector without clicking through TED by hand
• Consultants and researchers: country and CPV snapshots, exported to Excel
• AI agents: ask “what IT services tenders were published in the EU this week?” and read agentSummary

EU TED Tenders organizes public notices. It doesn't submit bids or replace the TED website: always confirm details on the notice page (link column) before you act.

FAQ

What is TED? Tenders Electronic Daily is the official online version of the Supplement to the Official Journal of the EU. It publishes public procurement notices from EU institutions, member states and other participating countries.

Do I need a TED login or API key? No. The Actor queries the public TED Search API v3 (https://api.ted.europa.eu/v3/notices/search).

Is this official data? Yes. Every row comes from the TED API run by the Publications Office of the European Union. This Actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by the EU.

Why is the title sometimes mixed-language? TED stores titles in many languages (TI is a multilingual dictionary). The Actor prefers English (TI.eng) and otherwise uses the first language TED returns. The project name is often left in the original language.

Why is the value empty? Estimated values and award amounts are not published on every notice. When TED does not send TVL, tender-value or BT-161, estimatedValue stays empty.

Which country filter does it use? Buyer country (ISO-3) via the TED expert-search field buyer-country. Two-letter codes such as DE are converted to DEU. The returned countries column is TED's CY list.

Does it scrape ted.europa.eu HTML? No. HTML and PDF links are taken from the API links object.
