Postal service procurement for the Estonian Tax and Customs Board

The bidder must confirm that neither the company nor its representatives, management, supervisory or controlling persons have been finally convicted within the last five years, or remain subject to an exclusion period, for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, child labour or other forms of human trafficking. The exclusion grounds also cover breaches of tax and social security payment obligations, enabling illegal employment of foreign nationals, being subject to international sanctions and other grounds under national law, including restrictions based on the bidder’s place of establishment or residence. The bidder must provide the required information and evidence concerning any relevant conviction, the persons involved, the exclusion period and the availability of supporting information in electronic databases. Where legally permitted, the bidder may describe remedial measures taken to restore its reliability. The bidder must also confirm compliance with international sanctions requirements and the applicable restriction on using subcontractors or suppliers connected with the Russian Federation for more than 10% of the contract value.

The bidder must submit the electronic European Single Procurement Document and confirm its suitability and compliance with tax obligations. The provided materials do not specify a particular turnover, previous-experience, professional-certificate or staffing requirement; any such conditions, if applicable, must be checked in the tender documents. The tender must comply with all conditions set out in the procurement documents, and conditional tenders are not allowed. For a joint tender, a separate procurement document must be submitted for each joint bidder, together with a power of attorney for the joint bidders. If the bidder relies on the capacities of other entities or uses subcontractors, the information required about those entities must be provided. The bidder must submit the completed price form. All service unit prices must be stated in euros, excluding VAT, with two decimal places. Unit prices may not exceed the corresponding business-customer prices valid on the tender submission deadline; the price list must be provided for verification at the contracting authority’s request. The bidder must also provide the names and personal identification codes of authorised persons who are not visible in the commercial register, or confirm that no such persons exist.
