DFARS 225.7020-5 Solicitation provision and contract clause.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This section tells contracting officers when to include a solicitation provision and a contract clause about business operations with the Maduro Regime. It matters to contractors because it means certain solicitations and contracts will require a representation and will prohibit such business operations, unless an exception or joint determination applies.

Applies to: Solicitations and contracts, including those for commercial products and commercial services under FAR part 12
