So when I am going to get my vendor number
We are an independent service provider for the purposes of the survey and do not represent the Centralised Supplier Database team or National Treasury. However, we can offer some advice.
When you have started the registration process on the CSD you will receive a Request number which identifies your application until the registration has been completed. You can then return with that number later if you needed to collect missing information.
In order to obtain your Vendor Number:
1. Make sure that all tabs (pages) of the application have been completed.
2. On the Overview tab check that everything has been completed and click “Submit”
3. You will then be sent an activation email with Master Number & Unique reference number and the system will take you to a screen where this information is displayed.
Once all information has been supplied this process can take place in a matter of minutes.
