Abstract.Tau-pair production in the process $\ensuremath{\mathrm{e}^ + \mathrm{e}^- \rightarrow \mathrm{e}^ + \mathrm{e}^-\tau^ + \tau^-}$ was studied using data collected by the DELPHI experiment at LEP2 during the years 1997 - 2000. The corresponding integrated luminosity is 650 pb-1. The values of the cross-section obtained are found to be in agreement with QED predictions. Limits on the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau lepton are deduced.
