Compliance requirements
The bidder must confirm in the ESPD that neither the company nor its management or supervisory body members, representatives or controlling persons have a final conviction within the last five years, or a still-applicable exclusion obligation, for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, or the unlawful use of child labour or other forms of human trafficking. The bidder must also have no outstanding breach of tax or social-security payment obligations, no relevant breach concerning the employment of an illegally staying foreign national, and no situation in which awarding the contract would violate an international or Estonian sanction. Where applicable, the bidder must provide details of the conviction or breach, the exclusion period, and any measures taken to restore its reliability, together with relevant evidence. For tax debt, the notice states that the tax authority does not issue a tax-debt certificate where the total tax debt is below EUR 100 or payment of the debt has been deferred.
