Compliance requirements
The tenderer must confirm that none of the exclusion grounds under Section 95(1) points 1–5 of the Estonian Public Procurement Act apply. In practical terms, this covers convictions for organised crime, corruption, fraud, terrorism-related offences, money laundering or terrorist financing; unlawful employment of foreign nationals; child labour or human trafficking offences; tax or social security debts; and conflicts with international or government sanctions.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The applicant must be registered in the commercial register or another similar register in its country of establishment, if local law requires such registration, and must provide a valid registration certificate or a copy of it. The applicant’s net turnover for the last three completed financial years before submission of the application must be at least EUR 200,000 in total; the relevant annual report extracts must be provided unless the data are publicly available to the contracting authority in an official database. If the bidder acts as an intermediary, it must provide documents issued by the manufacturer proving the right to supply the goods; if the bidder is the manufacturer itself, it must provide a written confirmation to that effect.
