The File Transfer Service (FTS) is an application that enables the transfer of large amounts of data between users within the Federal Administration.
The File Transfer Service also enables the exchange of files between the Federal Administration and external users (suppliers, partners, etc.). However, to enable them to access the web application and transfer files to the federal administration, an invitation from a federal employee is required.
