FAR and DFARS › FAR Part 52: Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses › Subpart 52.2

FAR 52.214-34 Submission of Offers in the English Language.

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 provision requires that offers submitted in response to a solicitation be written in English. If an offer is received in any other language, it will be rejected. This matters because a contractor must submit its offer in English to be considered for award.
