The bidder must confirm that neither it nor its relevant management, supervisory or representative persons have qualifying convictions within the last five years, or an outstanding exclusion period, for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism-related offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, or child labour and other forms of human trafficking. Exclusion may also apply for unpaid taxes or social security contributions, enabling a foreign national to work without a legal basis or breaching the conditions for employing a foreign national in Estonia, or if awarding the contract would breach an international or Estonian government sanction. For tax debts, the notice states a threshold of EUR 0; the accompanying clarification says tax debt certificates are not issued for debt below EUR 100, excluding interest not determined by an administrative act, or where payment has been deferred. Where an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may provide information on measures taken to restore its reliability if the applicable conditions allow this.
