About this file

This document is a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) provision template titled "Buy American Certificate" (52.225-2, October 2022 version). It is not a solicitation or procurement document but rather a standard clause prescribed for inclusion in federal contract opportunities.

The provision requires offerors to certify the origin and domestic content of end products being proposed. Offerors must certify that all end products are domestic end products unless specifically listed as foreign products in Section (b). 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, with an exception for commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) items. Offerors must separately identify line item numbers for domestic end products containing critical components in Section (c). The provision defines key terms including "COTS item," "critical component," "domestic end product," "end product," and "foreign end product" by reference to the "Buy American-Supplies" clause elsewhere in the solicitation. The Government will evaluate offers in accordance with Part 25 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, which governs foreign acquisition and Buy American compliance policies.
