+## Note on Submission Service
+
+!!! info "Limitations on External Submissions"
+
+    GHGA has only recently launched the functionality of the GHGA Data Portal. Our ongoing efforts concentrate on improving the data upload processes and the overall user experience for external submissions. Since data upload currently includes manual steps by GHGA data stewards, data upload by external users is not yet possible. See also this section in our [FAQ](../../faq.md#how-to-upload-your-data-to-the-ghga-data-portal).
