About this file
This file is the Buy American Certificate clause (FAR 52.225-2, October 2022 version), a required federal contracting form and certification template used in government solicitations.
The clause establishes the framework for offerors to certify the domestic or foreign origin of end products being offered. Offerors must certify that each end product is domestic unless specifically listed otherwise in paragraph (b). For any foreign end products that do not consist wholly or predominantly of iron or steel, offerors must indicate whether they exceed 55 percent domestic content, with exceptions for commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) items. Offerors must also separately identify line item numbers for domestic end products containing critical components as defined in the Buy American clause. The certificate requires three distinct sections: certification of domestic end products, listing of foreign end products with country of origin and domestic content percentages, and identification of domestic products with critical components. The Government evaluates all offers in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 25 policies. This is a standard compliance document applicable to the VA RFQ 36C25926Q0205 for Sonosite Ultrasound equipment due February 9, 2026.
