Section 11.1 Necessity for, and form of, general and special certificates. By reason of the numerous and varied types of supplies and services, and the different statutory and contract requirements imposed on certain classes of expenditures, the general certificate now appearing on Standard Form 1034-Revised, Voucher for Purchases and Services Other Than Personal, is insufficient to properly cover all transactions, and additional certifications must be required of vendors and contractors to cover certain special classes of purchases, and the forms of certifications to cover such special classes are hereby prescribed as follows:

I certify that the above bill is correct and just; that payment therefor has not been received; and that except as otherwise noted all of the articles, materials, and supplies furnished under purchase order No. if unmanufactured articles, materials, and supplies have been mined or produced in the United States, and if manufactured articles, material, and supplies, they have been manufactured in the United States substantially all from articles, materials, or supplies mined, produced, or manufactured, as the case may be, in the United States.

(b) Reduction in wage rates under contracts or agreements which provide that the Government is to receive the benefit of any reduction in wage rates requires that in addition to the general certificate, No. 1, there be furnished the following certificate:

I certify that the United States received the benefit of reduction, if any, in the wage rate (s) in accordance with the stipulations under the contract.

(c) Wages, rights, and hours of work of employees for procurements by law and/or under contracts, etc., require that in addition to the general certificate, No. 1, there be furnished the following certificate:

I certify that the stipulations required by law and/or under contract, etc., with respect to wages, rights, and hours of work of employees have been complied with.

Examples: The labor stipulations in the Acts of July 5, 1935, 49 Stat. 449; June 30, 1936, 49 Stat. 2036; and April 26, 1937, 50 Stat. 72, 87.

(d) Decline in market price for procurements under contracts or agreements which provide that the Government is to receive the benefit of any decline in market price requires that in addition to the general certificate, No. 1, there be furnished the following certificate: I certify that the United States received the benefit of decline, if any, in the market price (s) in accordance with the stipulations under the contract.

(e) Decrease in freight rates for procurements under contracts or agreements which provide that the Government is to receive the benefit of any decrease in freight rates requires that in addition to the general certificate, No. 1, there be furnished the following certificate: I certify that the United States received the benefit of decrease (s), if any, in freight rates in accordance with the stipulations under the contract.

I certify that tank-wagon (or barge, service station, etc.) price, at date and point of delivery, is as stated herein.

(g) Temperature adjustments: While no special form of certificate is prescribed for commodities such as oils, petroleum products, etc., contracted for on a temperature-adjustments basis, the vouchers or invoices covering such procurements should contain information as to the temperatures or moisture content involved in the adjustments of the quantities for which the vouchers or invoices are submitted.

(h) Telephone, telegraph, and metered services should, unless special forms are prescribed therefor, be billed on the company's invoices, the original of which must bear the following signed certificate: (Certificate No. 1 is NOT required in such cases.)

I certify that the above bill is correct and just; that payment therefor has not been received; that the rates charged were in effect at the time the services were rendered; and that such rates are not in excess of those charged the general public for similar services.

Secs. 309, 311 (f), 42 Stat. 25; 31 U.S.C. 49, 52 (f) [Circ. A–51607, A-49009, Apr. 2, 1938]

11.2 Manner of execution of certificates. The prescribed certificate (s) should be printed, stamped, typed, or written on the voucher or invoice and must be signed (in original only) by the duly authorized representative of the concern billing.

In cases where it is physically impossible to include additional certificate(s) on the FACE of the voucher or invoice, the certificate (s) will be placed on the reverse of the voucher or invoice. Additional (separate) sheets for, duplicates or copies of, certifications only will not be accepted.

Under no conditions should the certificates on Government vouchers or on invoice forms to be attached to such vouchers be signed in blank or at any time prior to submission of the voucher or invoice but after delivery or performance by the claimant. To do so may result in the submission of a false claim against the Government for which the person signing the certificate may be held liable under the law.
