Responsible Office: GC
File Name: 200sbs_101320

Overview

The following checklists are intended to be convenient references when planning and implementing foreign assistance programs. The checklists do not have every country prohibition or restriction. Consult the attorneys assigned to your Bureau or Mission to determine if there are additional country-specific or activity-specific prohibitions and "notwithstanding" authorities. It is also important to note that, in addition to the statutory restrictions set forth in the checklists, there may also be certain requirements that must be met prior to the obligation of funds (e.g., spend plan or reporting requirements) or executive policies that must be considered during planning and implementation (e.g., Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance). With regard to the applicability of a particular checklist item, please consider whether there is any factual information since completion of the FY 2019 Statutory Checklist that may trigger application of a restriction to the country or activity in FY 2020. Contact the listed point of contact, the USAID country desk officer, or the GC attorneys assigned to your Bureau or Mission, as applicable.
