A bidder may be excluded if, within the relevant period or while an exclusion period remains in force, the bidder or a person authorised to represent, manage or control it has been convicted of participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism-related offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, child labour or human trafficking. Exclusion may also apply for unpaid taxes or social security contributions; insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, creditor arrangements or suspended business; serious professional misconduct; agreements intended to distort competition; an unmanageable conflict of interest; improper involvement in preparing the procurement; or early termination, damages or comparable sanctions for a previous contract breach. Other grounds include breaches of environmental, social or labour-law obligations; providing false or misleading information, withholding required information or documents, or improperly seeking confidential information; enabling an unlawfully staying foreign national to work or breaching the applicable employment conditions; being subject to an international or Estonian government sanction; and convictions for tax offences. The notice states that a tax-debt certificate may not be issued where the debt administered by the same tax authority is below EUR 100 (excluding interest not determined by an administrative act) or payment has been rescheduled. Where permitted, the bidder may provide evidence of measures taken to restore its reliability.
