About this file

This is a GSA template form for Foreign Ownership and Financing Representation for High-Security Leased Space (GSAR 552.270-33, June 2021).

The form requires offerors, lessors, and novation transferees to disclose foreign ownership and financing information related to leased properties. Offerors must complete and submit the representation when proposing for a lease, while successful lessors must review, update, and resubmit annually on an anniversary basis from the Lease Term Effective Date through final payment. Lessors transferring leases to successors under FAR 42.1204 must submit the representation with novation requests. The form requires disclosure of immediate owners (entities with direct control), highest-level owners (top-tier controlling entities), and financing sources, with specific inquiries regarding whether these entities or persons are foreign. For each identified foreign owner or financing source, offerors must provide legal name, unique entity identifier if available, physical address, and country of origin. The form defines key terms including "foreign entity" (non-U.S. headquartered organizations or non-U.S. governments), "foreign person" (non-U.S. citizens or non-permanent residents), and "financing" (debt or equity funding for acquisition, maintenance, construction, or improvements). Lessors bear responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of disclosed data and potential liability from government reliance on inaccurate information. The form concludes with signature and name/title blocks for the offeror or lessor executing the representation.
