About this file

This is a standard disclosure certification form required by the State of New Jersey for state and local public contract awards. The document implements Public Law 2012, c. 25, which mandates that vendors and contractors certify their compliance with restrictions on investment activities in Iran's energy and finance sectors prior to contract award. The certification applies to all persons and entities bidding on goods, services, and construction contracts for New Jersey state and local contracting units. Vendors must attest under penalty of perjury that neither they nor any parent entity, subsidiary, or affiliate appears on the New Jersey Department of the Treasury's Chapter 25 List of entities engaged in prohibited investment activities in Iran. The form requires vendors to review the current Chapter 25 List available on the Treasury website before completing certification. Completion of this disclosure is mandatory for all successful bidders and proposers prior to contract execution.

The certification form contains three parts: Part 1 requires vendors to check a box confirming either compliance with the Iran investment restrictions or acknowledgment of listing on the Chapter 25 List; Part 2 requires detailed description of investment activities for entities unable to certify compliance; and Part 3 contains the sworn certification statement. Vendors who fail to comply or provide false certifications face severe penalties, including criminal prosecution, contract voidance, debarment, suspension, and recovery of damages. The contracting unit identification information must be inserted by the issuing agency prior to distribution. Vendors maintain a continuing obligation to notify the contracting unit in writing of any changes to their certification status from the certification date through contract completion.
