FAR 28.307 Insurance under cost-reimbursement contracts.

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 that cost-reimbursement contracts ordinarily require the types of insurance listed in 28.307-2, with the minimum liability amounts indicated there. It also notes that these requirements can extend to subcontracts if the prime contract terms are passed down, and points to 28.308 for self-insurance. It matters because contractors on cost-reimbursement work need to carry the specified insurance coverage.

Applies to: Cost-reimbursement contracts and, if the prime contract terms are extended, their subcontracts
