FAR and DFARS › FAR Part 53: Forms › Subpart 53.3

FAR 53.300 Listing of Standard, Optional, and Agency forms.

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 explains that FAR 53.300 lists Standard Forms, Optional Forms, and agency forms used in acquisitions, in numerical order. It tells you where to find these forms: Table 53-1 forms are at the GSA Forms Library, and Table 53-2 forms are at the websites listed in that table. It matters because it points contractors to the official sources for the forms referenced by the FAR.

Applies to: Acquisitions using FAR-specified forms
