About this file
This is an attachment to RFQ No. FA520526Q0027 providing a template and instructions for offerors to document customs duties and taxes excluded from their proposals under the Status of Forces Agreement between Japan and the United States. The document authorizes the U.S. Armed Forces to import materials, supplies, and equipment into Japan free from Japanese customs duties and to claim exemptions from certain Japanese taxes, including Consumption Tax (10%), Gasoline Tax and Local Road Tax on Gasoline (¥53.80 per liter), and Diesel Oil Tax (¥32.10 per liter). Upon contract award, the Contracting Officer will issue appropriate exemption certificates to the successful offeror to relieve them of these customs duties and taxes according to procedures established between the U.S. and Japanese governments.
The attachment requires offerors to list in a provided table the specific customs duties or taxes excluded from their pricing proposal, including the type of commodity, applicable tax rate or amount, and the total amount of duty or tax excluded. Tax exemption certificates for motor fuel are issued only after consumption and can be applied toward future fuel purchases; such certificates are issued only to the prime contractor, requiring prime contractors to purchase motor fuel directly if subcontractors or suppliers will use it to secure the exemption benefit. This is a required submission document as part of the proposal for RFQ FA520526Q0027.

(a) Paragraph 2, Article XI of the Status of Forces Agreement between Japan and the United States authorizes the United States entry into Japan free from Japanese customs duties and other charges, all materials, supplies and equipment imported for the official use of the United States Armed Forces or for the exclusive use of such forces or ultimately to be incorporated into articles or facilities used by such forces.
(b) Paragraph 3, Article XII of said Status of Forces Agreement authorized the United States exemption from certain Japanese taxes for materials, supplies, equipment and services procured for official purpose in Japan by the United States Armed Forces. Currently these taxes are (a) Consumption Tax; (b) Gasoline Tax and Local Road Tax on Gasoline; (c) Diesel Oil Tax.
(c) If you are the successful offeror, the Contracting Officer or his/her authorized representative will issue customs or tax exemption certificates as appropriate, relieving you from such customs duties or taxes in accordance with procedures agreed upon between the Government of Japan and the United States of America.
