DFARS 225.7303-3 Government-to-government agreements.

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 addresses government-to-government agreements between the United States and a foreign government for the sale, coproduction, or cooperative logistic support of a specifically defined weapon system, major end item, or support item. If such an agreement contains language that conflicts with the provisions of this section, the agreement's language takes precedence. This matters to contractors because the terms of the government-to-government agreement can override the DFARS rules in this section.

Applies to: Government-to-government agreements between the United States and a foreign government for the sale, coproduction, or cooperative logistic support of a specifically defined weapon system, major end it
