Impossibility (Public Procurement Contracts)

There is no provision on impossibility in the conclusion of contracts under Public Procurement Contracts Law No. 4735. In order to resolve doubts that may arise in practice, however, the provisions of the Code of Obligations apply where the Law contains no provision on the calculation of the periods it lays down, under Article 36 of Law No. 4735. Impossibility is the extinction of an obligation where performance under a public procurement contract becomes impossible for reasons for which the debtor cannot be held responsible.
