DD Form 2139 is a Department of Defense form, not a service form: DD Form 2139, Report of Contract Performance Outside the United States, November 2015, used to Report of Contract Performance Outside the United States. The DD prefix is the operative fact. It means one blank serves every military department — Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Space Force, Coast Guard under Defense jurisdiction — plus the defense agencies and combatant commands. No branch variant exists.
Authority: not stated prescribes it, not stated maintains it. Those two names settle most disputes about why the form is being asked for. Local commands add timing on top; the requirement itself comes from above them.
Current edition is not stated, carried as not stated. Check that against any copy you already hold before doing anything else — Department-level revisions land everywhere simultaneously, so a stale file is stale across the whole Department.
Available: PDF, across 1 pages, roughly 16 fields. That is the whole scope of the download decision.
Default to fillable pdf, print only when you must. The fillable file stores what you type; the printable file is a blank picture. A Department form often travels further than a service form — scanned, emailed, forwarded to an agency that never saw the original — and typed text is what survives that.
Skip xfdl unless the viewer is already installed. It is the IBM Lotus Forms format, adopted Department-wide for electronic forms and still present in the set for that reason; ordinary pdf software reports it as unreadable.
All formats are free. One operational note: save the file locally and open it in a desktop reader. Browser-embedded viewers drop field properties and lose typed data without warning.
What the form asks for
- 1.a. Prime Contract Number. Use solicitation number when report is submitted with offer.
- 1.b. Purchase Order Number (if applicable).
- 2. Program Identification (e.g., F-16 aircraft, F-100 engine, A N/A P N - 59 radar, or type of services)
- 3. Name and division of prime contractor.
- 4. Address of prime contractor. Enter street, city, state, and 9 - digit zip code.
- Press space bar to mark X in first box if first-tier subcontractor, second box if second-tier.
- 6. Address of subcontractor or foreign division of prime contractor. Enter street, city, state, 9 - digit zip code, and country.
- 7. Value, in dollars, of effort performed outside the United States for this action only. Do not include amounts previously reported.
- 8. Country of origin. Enter city and country of actual producer of supplies or firm providing services.
- 9. Description of supplies or services obtained outside the United States (e.g., vertical stabilizer, F-15; Bomb Nav System, F B-111; or repair of F-16 wings).
- 10. Name of company submitting report (prime contractor for reports on first-tier subcontracts or first-tier subcontractor for reports on second-tier subcontracts).
- 5. Name of subcontractor or foreign division of prime contractor. If subcontractor, identify whether first or second tier.
- 11. Name of submitter (last, first, middle initial).

Verify the edition before the first keystroke. The date on the form face should read not stated. If it does not, discard the file. Field numbering shifts between editions, and on a DD form the new layout reaches every receiving office in every service at once — there is no lag during which the old version is still normal somewhere.
Fill top to bottom. Identification, then substance, then certification — lower fields commonly derive from the header, and completing out of order produces internal contradictions a reviewer will catch.
Nothing stays blank. N/A on an inapplicable item, because an empty box is indistinguishable from a skipped question and the form returns for it. Dates follow the format printed beside the field, not local habit — a joint form is read by clerks in several services with different date conventions, and ambiguity is expensive.
Read the Privacy Act Statement before entering identifiers, not after. Four facts are in it: authority, purpose, routine uses, consequence of declining. Its placement ahead of the data fields is deliberate.
Certification closes the form. Ink on paper, or a digital signature — normally CAC-applied — in software that supports it. Typed text in the signature box is a name, not an execution. Enter the date beside it before closing the file.
Final pass, against the standing defect list: superseded edition, empty mandatory fields, handwriting illegible after scanning, non-conforming dates, missing signature or date. For anything ambiguous in a specific field, the form's own instructions come first and not stated controls where the two differ.
Submit to the office named in not stated or in local instruction; retain a duplicate before it leaves. Joint routing often sends a DD form across organizational boundaries, and tracing one afterward is not a same-day matter.
A number is a complete address in the DD series. Because the sequence is Department-level and not duplicated per service, there is nothing further to specify.
Where a procedure cites both a service form and a DD form, the two are unconnected. Service numbering answers to a service proponent, DD numbering to not stated or another Department office, and the two sequences were never aligned. Matching numbers mean nothing whatever.
Revision follows directive changes, changed data requirements and amended notice language, unannounced. Verify not stated each time rather than trusting a saved copy — the cost of the check is seconds.
Limits of this page: it distributes a published Department of Defense document and describes it. No legal advice, no procedural ruling, no statement about whether any submission will be accepted. Applicability, eligibility and procedure belong to not stated, to a servicing personnel office, or to the office named in not stated.
