(1) The Government of the U.K. must approve waiver of U.K. levies. When an offeror or contractor identifies a levy included in an offered or contract price, provide written notification to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency, ATTN: PSD-PMD, 1111 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202-4306, telephone (703) 601-3864. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency will request a waiver of the levy from the Government of the U.K. The notification must include—
(i) Name of the U.K. firm;
(ii) Prime contract number;
(iii) Description of item for which waiver is being sought;
(iv) Quantity being acquired; and
(v) Amount of levy.
(2) Waiver may occur after contract award. If levies are waived before contract award, evaluate the offer without the levy. If levies are identified but not waived before contract award, evaluate the offer inclusive of the levies.
