A bidder must confirm that none of the mandatory exclusion grounds apply. These include specified serious criminal convictions involving the bidder or its relevant representatives; convictions for enabling unlawful employment or breaches of foreign workers’ employment conditions; illegal child labour or human trafficking; outstanding tax, social security or environmental charge debts; and a contract award that would breach applicable international or Estonian government sanctions. A bidder registered outside Estonia must submit the specified criminal-record or equivalent certificate and a certificate from the competent authority concerning tax and social security debts. The contracting authority may also exclude a bidder for breaches of environmental, social or labour obligations; insolvency, liquidation or a comparable situation; serious professional misconduct; anti-competitive conduct; an unmanageable conflict of interest or distortion of competition arising from involvement in preparing the procurement; significant or repeated failures under a previous public contract; false or missing information or requested supporting documents; attempts to improperly influence the contracting authority or obtain confidential information; specified tax-related convictions; or lack of a legal right to participate. Bidders must also respond to the stated check on any restriction based on the bidder’s place of establishment or residence; the applicable details must be checked in the tender documents.

For the relevant lot, the bidder must have properly completed at least one goods sale and delivery contract during the 36 months preceding the start of the procurement: - Lot 1: sale and delivery of packaging tape; the reference may also cover manually operated taping devices. - Lot 2: sale and delivery of paper packaging materials. - Lot 3: sale and delivery of film and/or filling materials used for packaging or protecting consignments. - Lot 4: sale and delivery of packing twine and/or fastening straps. - Lot 5: sale and delivery of plastic document wallets. - Lot 6: sale and delivery of corrugated cardboard packaging boxes.

If bidding for several lots, the bidder must meet the requirement for each relevant lot; one reference may support several lots if its subject meets the requirements for each.
