About this file
This is an Exhibit form documenting Texas's Prohibition of Contracts with Companies Boycotting Israel requirement, applicable to state agencies and political subdivisions including transportation authorities. The form must be completed and submitted with all bids and proposals for contracts governed by Texas House Bill 89, effective September 1, 2017, which amended the Texas Government Code Chapter 2270. The certification requires companies to verify in writing that they do not boycott Israel and will not engage in such boycotts during the contract term. The term "boycott Israel" is defined as refusing to deal with, terminating business activities with, or taking action intended to penalize, inflict economic harm on, or limit commercial relations with Israel, entities doing business in Israel, or Israeli-controlled territories, excluding actions taken for ordinary business purposes.
The certification requirement applies only to for-profit entities such as sole proprietorships, organizations, corporations, partnerships, joint ventures, and limited liability companies, and specifically excludes sole proprietors, non-profit entities, and governmental entities. The form applies only when the company has ten or more full-time employees and the contract value equals or exceeds $100,000. The certifying official must complete and sign the form, providing their name, title, the company name, and the date of certification. No specific pricing terms, set-asides, incumbents, or funding sources are detailed in this exhibit, as it functions solely as a compliance certification requirement for contract eligibility.
