About this file
This document is a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause template titled "Availability of Funds" (52.232-18, effective April 1984). The clause is prescribed for inclusion in solicitations under FAR 32.706-1(a) and addresses the government's financial obligation contingency.
The clause establishes that appropriated funds are not currently available for the contract at the time of solicitation. It specifies that the government's contractual obligation is strictly contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds from which contract payments can be made. Critically, the clause states that no legal liability accrues to the government for any payment until funds are made available to the Contracting Officer and the Contractor receives written confirmation of such availability from the Contracting Officer. This template clause is intended to protect the government from financial liability when contracting for work or services before budget appropriations are secured.
