TAX EXEMPTION

Exemption from Japanese Customs Duties and Taxes Pursuant to Status of Forces Agreement (Aug 1987)

(1) Paragraph 2, Article XI of the Status of Forces Agreement between Japan and the United States, authorized 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.

(2) Paragraph 3, Article XII of said Status of Forces Agreement, authorizes the United Status exemption from certain Japanese taxes for materials, supplies, equipment and services procured for official purpose in Japan by the United Status Armed Forces or by authorized agencies of the United State Armed Forces. Currently, these taxes are:

(a) Commodity tax; (b) Traveling tax; (c) Gasoline tax and local road tax on gasoline; (d) Diesel oil tax;

(e) Electricity and gas taxes; (f) Liquefied petroleum gas tax.

(3) If you are the successful offeror, the Contracting Officer or his 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. Tax exemption certificates for motor fuel will be issued only after consumption of the motor fuel, either at the end of each month or upon termination of the contract. These can be applied against future purchases of motor fuel. They will be issued only to you as the prime contractor, so, if you employ a subcontractor or supplier who uses motor fuel, you must purchase the motor fuel to secure the exemption.

(4) List below the customs duties or taxes, which have been excluded from your proposal as required by the Taxes Clause.

Custom Duty Type of Commodity and Amount of Duty of Tax or Tax Percentage of Tax Excluded in U.S. dollars

Note: FAR provision 52.229-11 and FAR clause 52.229-12 are included in this solicitation. This provision and clause concern the imposition of a 2 percent Federal excise tax withholding on any resultant contract award or payment request. This rule applies to Federal Government contracts for goods or services that are awarded to foreign persons. It implements the Department of the Treasury final regulations published in the Federal Register at 81 FR 55133 on August 18, 2016, under section 5000C of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the 2 percent tax on payments made by the U.S. Government to foreign entities pursuant to certain contracts.

Exemptions from this excise tax must be claimed by an Offeror when it submits, with its offer, a U.S.

Department of Treasury Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form W-14, Certificate of Foreign Contracting Party Receiving Federal Procurement Payments, available via the internet at www.irs.gov/w14. If not submitted with the offer, exemptions will not be applied to any resulting contract and the Government will withhold a full 2 percent on each payment. Failure to submit IRS Form W-14 with a payment request will also result in an automatic withholding of 2 percent from the payment request.

When filling out the IRS Form W-14 the following information may be used to complete Part I, Line 6 and 7:

Line 6 Contract / reference number: Use the RFQ/RFP/IFB number on the solicitation

Line 7 Name and address of the acquiring agency: NAVFAC Far East PWD Sasebo

City or town, state or province. Include postal code where appropriate: Bldg. 200, 2nd Floor, Hirase- Cho, Sasebo-shi, Nagasaki-ken 857-0056

Country (do not abbreviate): Japan

Any exemption claimed and self-certified is subject to audit by the IRS. Any disputes concerning this tax are adjudicated by the IRS because the Section 5000C tax is a tax matter not a contract issue.

Offerors are encouraged to seek guidance from their own tax professionals for advice concerning the provision, clause, and the execution/submission of IRS Form W-14. Additional information is also available at:
