In case we need to contact you.

If you are not logged into your account, you must provide the physical address where the Chametz included in this sale is located. This contract is invalid without this information.

This box must be checked in order to execute this contract.

On Pesach it is prohibited to possess chametz (leaven). All chametz that will not be eaten or burned before Pesach must be sold to a non-Jew. All chametz utensils that will not be thoroughly cleaned by then, and are stored away in closets or rooms while preparing for Pesach. The storage area is locked or tape-shut, and leased to a non-Jew at the time of the sale. There are many legal intricacies in this sale, thus, a rabbi should be entrusted with its execution. The rabbi acts as our agent both to sell the chametz to the non-Jew in the morning before Pesach starts and also to buy it back the evening after Pesach ends. Locking your chametz away and giving your Rabbi the Signed Chametz Contract is an easy way of observing one of the most important laws in the Torah. Chametz which remains in the possession of a Jew over Pesach may not be used, eaten, bought or sold even after Pesach.
