About this file
This document is a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) standard form 52.225-2 Buy American Certificate dated October 2022. The certificate requires offerors to certify the origin and domestic content of end products being proposed for a government contract. Vendors must comprehensively list each end product, specifying whether they are domestic or foreign, and for foreign products, indicate if they exceed 55% domestic content. Critical components must be separately identified, and the form requires vendors to provide line-item numbers, countries of origin, and domestic content percentages for all products.
The certificate instructs offerors to follow specific guidelines when classifying products as domestic or foreign, with particular attention to products manufactured in the United States that may not fully qualify as domestic end products. The government will evaluate offers according to part 25 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, focusing on the domestic origin and content of proposed products. Vendors must carefully complete the form, noting COTS (commercially available off-the-shelf) items and ensuring accurate reporting of product origins and domestic content percentages.
