About this file

This document is a Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services Representation form that provides guidelines for merchants and cardholders regarding prohibitions on certain telecommunications equipment and services in federal contracting. The form specifically prohibits telecommunications and video surveillance equipment from manufacturers like Huawei, ZTE, Hytera Communications, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology, and Dahua Technology, along with their subsidiaries or affiliates.

The document outlines a process for merchants to represent whether they will or will not provide, use, or have covered telecommunications equipment or services. Cardholders must review the representation, and if a merchant indicates they "do not" use such equipment, the purchase can proceed. If a merchant represents "does" use such equipment or declines to complete the representation, the cardholder must forward the requirement to the supporting contracting office. The form includes specific instructions for documentation retention, exemptions for certain transaction types (like contract payments and inter-governmental transactions), and requires merchants to complete Section 2 of the form with their representation.
