About this file
This is a GSA template form (GSAR 552.270-33) for foreign ownership and financing representation required for high-security leased space contracts.
The form requires offerors and lessors to disclose foreign ownership and financing arrangements related to lease proposals for government facilities. Offerors must complete the initial representation when submitting proposals, while successful lessors must review and update the representation annually, starting one year from the lease term effective date through final contract payment. Lessors requesting lease transfers to successors in interest must also submit updated representations with novation documentation. The representation requires disclosure of: (1) immediate owners, including legal names, unique entity identifiers, and whether they are foreign entities or foreign persons; (2) highest-level owners with the same identifying information if the immediate owner is owned or controlled by another entity; and (3) financing sources involving foreign entities or persons, including legal names, unique entity identifiers, physical addresses, and countries of origin. The form defines key terms including "foreign entity" (nongovernmental organizations headquartered outside the U.S. or foreign governments), "foreign person" (non-U.S. citizens or aliens not lawfully admitted for permanent residence), and "immediate owner" and "highest-level owner" based on control indicators such as ownership, interlocking management, family relationships, and shared facilities. Offerors and lessors are responsible for accuracy and completeness of all disclosed information and potential liability from providing inaccurate or incomplete data to the government.
