EFT_FORM.pdf

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 enables Clay County's Comptroller's office and the vendor's designated financial institution to process electronic credits and, if necessary, debit entries for error corrections. The authorization remains valid until the vendor provides written cancellation to the Comptroller Department. Vendors must provide complete account information including the financial institution name, account type (checking, savings, or other), transit/ABA/routing number, and account number. The form applies to all vendors and contractors working with Clay County, including those bidding on projects such as the Storm Damage Berm Repairs at Clay County Outdoor Adventure Park, which involves erosion damage remediation at five berm locations.

Completion of the EFT Authorization Form is mandatory for vendors seeking payment from Clay County. Vendors must ensure all banking information is accurate and current, with instructions to contact their financial institution for direct deposit or EFT documentation if needed. Vendors are required to notify the Comptroller Department immediately if their bank account is closed or changed to prevent payment processing delays or complications. The form requires an authorized signature and date of execution. This standardized form streamlines payment processing for all County contracts and ensures efficient fund disbursement through electronic methods rather than traditional check payments.
