Overview
This section establishes that requests for the use of U.S. Government property by or for foreign governments and international organizations are governed by specific internal agency policies.
Key Rules
- Scope: Applies to any request to use Government property that originates from, or is intended to benefit, a foreign government or international organization.
- Procedural Authority: The FAR does not provide a universal process for these requests; instead, it mandates that they be processed according to individual "agency procedures."
Practical Implications
- Contractors must consult agency-specific supplements (such as the DFARS for defense contracts) to understand the approval process for using Government property on foreign-related projects.
- This section is frequently invoked in the context of Foreign Military Sales (FMS), where specific agency coordination is required to ensure compliance with international agreements and property accountability.
