About this file

This is a Byrd Anti-Lobbying Certification document required for federal contract opportunities. The certification applies to any purchase or contract exceeding $100,000 that will be paid in whole or in part with federal government funds. The document establishes the legal framework under Appendix A, 44 C.F.R. Part 18, requiring contractors and their authorized representatives to certify that no federal appropriated funds have been or will be used to influence federal officials, members of Congress, or congressional employees in connection with the awarding, modification, or extension of federal contracts, grants, loans, or cooperative agreements. The certification must be completed and signed by the contractor's authorized official, including the official's name, title, and date of submission.

The certification establishes material representations of fact and is a prerequisite for entering into the transaction under section 1352, title 31, U.S. Code. Contractors must ensure identical certification language is included in all subaward documents at all tiers, including subcontracts and subgrants. Non-compliance with certification requirements subjects violators to civil penalties ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 for each failure. The contractor's submission of this certification also subjects it to the provisions of 31 U.S.C. Chapter 38 regarding administrative remedies for false claims and statements, making accuracy and truthfulness of the certification mandatory.
