Chametz Sale 2024

This form must be completed and submitted by Monday, April 22nd at 10 AM.

Contract for Selling Chametz

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, should be stored away in closets or rooms while preparing for Pesach. The storage area is locked or taped shut, and leased to a non-Jew at the time of the sale.

There are many intricacies in this sale, thus, only a competent rabbi should be entrusted with its execution. The rabbi acts as our agent both to sell the chametz to the non-Jew on 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, or sold even after Pesach. Chametz may not be eaten on Tuesday, April 30 until after 8:36 PM.
