Requirement: The tenderers shall have their tax and VAT payments in order. Documentation: Tax Certificate, issued by Altinn, the Tax office or the Tax Collection Office. The certificate shall not be issued more than 6 months prior to the tender deadline.

The self-declaration must be signed.

Confirmation of registration in a trade or business register as prescribed by the law of the country in which the supplier is established (applies to foreign companies).
Finance. Requirements: The company's solidity. The tenderer must have sufficient economic and financial capacity to complete the contract. Tenderers can document their economic/financial capacity in the following ways: — Credit rating report from companies that have a licence from Datatilsynet (The Norwegian Data Protection Authority) to operate a credit information company in Norway, possibly from a company with equivalent certification in a member country in the EU/EEA. The credit rating report must be based on updated accounting information; — The last year's Annual Financial Statement including the board's annual report and the auditor's statement. Recently established companies that cannot present approved annual accounts can submit the accounts that have been completed; — Appropriate bank/parent company guarantees and/or relevant liability insurance. The Contracting Authority will regard bank/parent company guarantees or relevant liability insurance as suitable if these documents cover the Contracting Authority's financial risk where the tenderer does not have the financial or economic capacity to fulfil the contract. The Contracting Authority's financial risk means economic loss caused by non fulfilment of the contract. Parent Companies providing guarantees must document that they themselves comply with the requirement for ‘the company's solidity. The tenderer is free to provide other information that can be seen as relevant for the assessment of whether the company's solidity requirement is fulfilled. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to obtain credit rating reports.
Requirements: Implementation ability — personnel. The tenderer is required to show good ability to carry out the assignment in accordance with the needs of the Contracting Authority.
