520 |a Context. Circumstellar disks and self-luminous giant exoplanets or companion brown dwarfs can be characterized through direct-imaging polarimetry at near-infrared wavelengths. SPHERE/IRDIS at the Very Large Telescope has the capabilities to perform such measurements, but uncalibrated instrumental polarization effects limit the attainable polarimetric accuracy.<i>Aims.<i/> We aim to characterize and correct the instrumental polarization effects of the complete optical system, that is, the telescope and SPHERE/IRDIS.<i>Methods.<i/> We created a detailed Mueller matrix model in the broadband filters <i>Y, J, H,<i/> and <i>K<i/><sub><i>s<i/><sub/> and calibrated the model using measurements with SPHERE’s internal light source and observations of two unpolarized stars. We developed a data-reduction method that uses the model to correct for the instrumental polarization effects, and applied it to observations of the circumstellar disk of T Cha.<i>Results.<i/> The instrumental polarization is almost exclusively produced by the telescope and SPHERE’s first mirror and varies with telescope altitude angle. The crosstalk primarily originates from the image derotator (K-mirror). At some orientations, the derotator causes severe loss of signal (> 90% loss in the <i>H<i/>- and <i>K<i/><sub><i>s<i/><sub/>-band) and strongly offsets the angle of linear polarization. With our correction method we reach, in all filters, a total polarimetric accuracy of ≲0.1% in the degree of linear polarization and an accuracy of a few degrees in angle of linear polarization.<i>Conclusions.<i/> The correction method enables us to accurately measure the polarized intensity and angle of linear polarization of circumstellar disks, and is a vital tool for detecting spatially unresolved (inner) disks and measuring the polarization of substellar companions. We have incorporated the correction method in a highly-automated end-to-end data-reduction pipeline called IRDAP, which we made publicly available online.
