FAR and DFARS › DFARS Part 225: Foreign Acquisition › Subpart 225.77

DFARS 225.7704-2 Applicability of Balance of Payments Program.

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 says the Balance of Payments Program normally does not apply to certain offers from SC/CASA states when DoD buys them in direct support of operations in Afghanistan. It matters because it can remove a restriction that would otherwise apply to those acquisitions.

Applies to: Offers of end products other than arms, ammunition, and war materials, and construction materials from SC/CASA states, acquired by or on behalf of DoD in direct support of operations in Afghanistan

Key terms: Balance of Payments Program · SC/CASA states · end products · construction materials · operations in Afghanistan

The text

The Deputy Secretary of Defense has determined, because of importance to national security, that it would be inconsistent with the public interest to apply the provisions of the Balance of Payments Program (see subpart 225.75) to offers of end products other than arms, ammunition, and war materials (i.e., end products listed in 225.401-70) and construction materials from the SC/CASA states that are being acquired by or on behalf of DoD in direct support of operations in Afghanistan.
