This is an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Form issued by the Clay County Clerk of Court and Comptroller in Florida for use by vendors and contractors conducting business with Clay County. The form authorizes Clay County's Comptroller and the vendor's financial institution to initiate electronic fund transfers, including credits, debits, and adjustments for erroneous entries. The authorization remains in effect until the vendor submits written cancellation to the Comptroller Department. Vendors must provide complete banking information including the financial institution name, account type (checking, savings, or other), routing/ABA number, and account number. Individuals are advised to contact their financial institutions for direct deposit or EFT letters or voided checks if unsure of their complete information, while businesses and vendors should consult their institutions for complete ACH/EFT information. The form requires an authorized signature and date.

This EFT form is a standard administrative requirement for Clay County vendors and is directly related to the county's Request for Bids for four enclosed cargo trailers for firefighter gear storage. Vendors bidding on or awarded contracts with Clay County must complete this form to receive payment through electronic fund transfer, which is the county's preferred payment method. Vendors are instructed to notify the Comptroller Department immediately if they close or change their bank account to ensure uninterrupted payment processing. The form serves as the authorization document necessary for establishing the electronic payment relationship between Clay County and its vendors.
