About this file

This document is an Annual Affidavit for Bidders, Offerors and Contractors required by the Commonwealth of Kentucky for state and local contract opportunities. The affidavit serves as a mandatory compliance document with an effective period of one year and must be completed by all entities seeking to bid on or be awarded contracts with Kentucky governmental agencies. Bidders and offerors are required to affirm compliance with multiple Kentucky statutes governing campaign finance laws, tax obligations, sales tax registration, boycott prohibitions, and ethical conduct standards. The affidavit applies to all bids and contracts in general, with additional requirements specific to non-bid contracts such as sole-source, non-competitive, or emergency procurements.

The document contains three distinct affidavit sections addressing general bidding requirements, qualified bidder status claims, and resident bidder status claims. All affidavits must be executed under penalty of perjury and notarized by a qualified notary public. Bidders must affirm they have not violated campaign finance laws, are current on all state taxes and fees, maintain proper sales tax registration, are not engaged in prohibited boycotts, and comply with ethics restrictions under KRS 11A.236. For non-bid contracts specifically, contractors must disclose campaign contributions by themselves, immediate family members, officers, employees, and affiliated entities to gubernatorial candidates and elected officials with jurisdiction over the contract award. The Commonwealth reserves the right to request updated affidavits at any time and may terminate contracts or pursue other remedies for non-compliance or inaccurate disclosures discovered during the affidavit effective period.
