Tax Clearance and Compliance Administration

The contract requires the acquisition and submission of tax clearance certificates from both the Hawaii Department of Taxation and the Internal Revenue Service for the prime contractor and all subcontractors involved in the project. These certificates must be obtained and verified prior to the commencement of work and again before final payment is processed, ensuring full compliance with state and federal tax obligations. The requirement is mandatory and serves as a condition precedent to both performance authorization and financial settlement, emphasizing strict adherence to tax regulatory standards. This subcontract is issued under the NAICS code 541211, indicating a focus on accounting, tax preparation, bookkeeping, or payroll services, and is managed by the Hawaii Department of Business, Economic Development, & Tourism. The solicitation was posted on May 8, 2026, with responses due by May 22, 2026. The place of performance and specific agency office details are not provided, but the process must be completed in alignment with Hawaii’s requirements and federal guidelines. Compliance is non-negotiable, and failure to obtain and submit valid tax clearances for all parties will result in disqualification from performance or payment.
