The bidder must confirm that neither the bidder, its administrative, management or supervisory board members, nor its authorised representatives have received a final conviction during the last five years for, among other things, participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism-related offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, or illegal use of child labour or other forms of human trafficking. The exclusion grounds also cover tax or social security payment arrears, breaches of environmental, social or labour law obligations, bankruptcy or another insolvency situation, liquidation, administration of assets by a liquidator or court, suspended business activities, serious professional misconduct, agreements restricting competition, conflicts of interest, involvement in preparing the procurement, material breaches of previous public contracts, and the submission of false information or failure to provide required information or documents. Contract award must not breach an international or Estonian sanction, and the bidder or its representative must not have been convicted of relevant tax offences or enabled an unlawfully staying foreign national to work. The threshold for tax and social security payment arrears is EUR 0; the tax authority does not issue a debt certificate where the debt is below EUR 100 or payment has been deferred. Where an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may, where permitted, submit evidence of remedial measures demonstrating restored reliability.
