Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
Tata Steel UK Limited (“TSUK”) does not have a standard payment term. TSUK has a range
of payment terms dependent on a number of factors.
The most common payment term used within the company is that payment of undisputed
amounts, unless otherwise set out in a Purchase Order, shall be made on the last day of the
second calendar month after the month of delivery or performance, provided the invoice quotes
the relevant Purchase Order number and relevant Service Entry Sheet (“SES”) number and
such invoice reaches TSUK by the 5th of the month following the month of delivery. - Dispute resolution process
TSUK has a dedicated Contact Centre for external communications. The Contact Centre offers support
on any query or will assist in directing queries to the relevant department for resolution. The team can
be contacted via email (ATCE.Purchase.Accounting@tatasteeleurope.com) or telephone (01639
605300), Monday to Thursday, 8:30am to 4:45pm and Friday, 8:30am to 3:45pm.
TSUK attempts to resolve all queries relating to disputed payments at the initial point of contact. Queries
left unresolved, and needing investigation after the initial contact, are given a reference number. TSUK
will further investigate the unresolved query and provide regular updates to the supplier until resolution.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
08 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
09 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
10 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
11 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
