Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office procured tax calculation services for the British Embassy in Brussels. The work is financial consultancy, focused on calculating taxes for the embassy. The requirement is tied to the embassy in Brussels, Belgium, and is for services rather than goods or construction work.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. It was directly awarded below the applicable threshold, without competition. Baker Tilly Belgium was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026, runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028, and is valued at £104,000.

For suppliers considering similar work for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, this award shows demand for tax calculation services supporting a British diplomatic mission in Brussels. A credible competitor would need to deliver accurate tax calculations for an embassy context and be able to provide financial consultancy services in Belgium. Baker Tilly Belgium, a large supplier, was selected for this requirement, indicating that the buyer engaged an established provider. The work is a focused specialist service rather than a broad finance transformation or general tax-advisory programme. Suppliers with relevant tax-calculation capability and the operational capacity to serve the embassy would be best placed to compete if a comparable requirement returns to the market.
