Mobility and Materials - Submitting your invoice

 
 
 

On February 18, 2022, our parent company, DuPont de Nemours, Inc., (“DuPont”) announced that it entered into a definitive agreement with Celanese Corporation (“Buyer”) to divest a majority of DuPont’s Mobility & Materials businesses[1] (“M&M”), excluding certain businesses (the “Transaction”). The businesses excluded from the Transaction include the Adhesives, Brake Fluids, Multibase™, Tedlar® and Delrin® businesses. The portion of the business to be sold to Buyer is hereinafter referred to as the “M&M Business”.

The Transaction is targeted to close around the end of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, (the “Transaction Closing Date”). In anticipation of the Transaction, DuPont is internally separating its M&M Business from DuPont’s retained business effective November 1, 2022 by updating its legal entity structure so that all legal entities either hold DuPont’s retained business or the M&M Business. On the Transaction Closing Date, the legal entities holding the M&M Business, will transfer to the Buyer. To be clear, until the closing of the Transaction, the M&M Business is, and continues to be, a business of DuPont regardless of any changes as part of our internal reorganization.

Effective November 1, 2022, the legal entity name, Tax Identification Numbers (TIN), and invoicing information for some legal entities are changing or are newly created. (Please note: some, not all, legal entities are impacted; others will have no changes.) Invoices related to impacted Purchase Orders need to be addressed to this changed or new address or email, unless otherwise determined by country laws and regulations (see more detailed instructions below).

In anticipation of the transaction, you may need to set up new M&M Business or DuPont legal entity/ies as a customer in your system, as well as update the invoicing and tax information. (If you currently transact with the M&M Business and other DuPont businesses, please be sure to create a new account for the M&M Business and not replace the existing DuPont account.) The effective date to make these changes is November 1, 2022.

After November 1, we will be unable to process payments for invoices that are sent to the previous contacts. Failure to invoice the new legal entity will result in invoices being rejected for reasons of legal compliance (subject to local country regulations.)
