The British Council has initiated an open procurement process for the provision of books for general English courses, specifically targeting the Gulf countries like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, UAE, and Bahrain.

The tender, with an ID of ITT1024972, is accepting submissions until 18th July 2025, following the close of the enquiry period on 4th July 2025.
