About this file
This is a DFARS form template for the Buy American—Balance of Payments Program Certificate (Alternate I, February 2024). The provision requires offerors to certify the country of origin and domestic content status of all end products subject to Buy American and Balance of Payments Program restrictions.
Offerors must certify that each end product is a domestic end product, unless specifically listed as a qualifying country end product, SC/CASA state end product, or other foreign end product. For non-COTS domestic end products containing critical components or critical items, offerors must identify them separately per FAR 25.105. For foreign end products that do not consist wholly or predominantly of iron or steel, offerors must indicate whether they exceed 55 percent domestic content, except for COTS items; if the domestic content percentage is unknown, offerors must select "no." The provision includes blank table sections for offerors to list line item numbers corresponding to qualifying country end products, SC/CASA state end products, other foreign end products with their countries of origin (if known), and domestic end products containing critical components or items. The Government will evaluate offers in accordance with DFARS Part 225 policies and procedures, treating qualifying country and SC/CASA state end products without regard to Buy American statute or Balance of Payments Program restrictions.
