Selling Chametz
Before the Passover holiday, this year on April 19, there is a time-honored Jewish tradition and extremely important mitzvah from the Torah not only to refrain from eating chametz but also to remove all chametz from our possession.
Flour and leavened products like bread, cereals, and almost anything grain-based or with flour or yeast ingredients.
As products began to have a longer shelf life, the rabbis devised a very simple way of fulfilling this mitzvah: we sell all our chametz to a non-Jew for the 8 days of Passover.
(For the mitzvah of removing the chametz we suffice with destroying only a small part on the morning before, to do the mitzvah.)
It is very easy to do: just fill in the information below and sign and your ownership of
the chametz is officially transferred for the required time.
- You are not selling any non-food valuables in the home. All you are selling are the chametz related foods and items.
