ACCEPTANCE OF GIFTS FROM FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS
The Agency's policy with respect to acceptance of gifts, awards or
decorations from forelLy governments is contained in Headquarters
STATINTL Regulation] This regulation is patterned on regulations issued
by the Secretary o the State as contained in 22 C.F.R. Part 3, which regula-
tions draw their authority from 5 U . S . C . 7342 and E.O. 11320. Copies of
these are attached.
A gift or decoration having a retail value not exceeding $50 may be
accepted and retained by an employee, but a gift in excess of $50 is
determined to have been accepted on behalf of the United States and must he
deposited for use and disposal as the property of the United States. A gift
or decoration to a member of an employee's immediate family or household is
treated as a gift to him. Employees under official cover are directed by the
regulation to comply with the regulations and practices of their cover organi na-
tion. All employees are required to report all gifts to the Director of
Personnel, and the Deputy Director responsible for the employee will review
each report and advise the Director of Personnel of any security or cover
circumstances affecting the distribution of the gift. The Director of
Personnel is required to make a determination regarding the disposition of
the gift and in those cases where the employee may not retain it, the
Director of Personnel is required to provide for its storage or other disposition.
If there is a substantial operational necessity, the Director of Personnel may
permit the employee to be given the temporary loan of the gift, i. e . , upon the
occasion of a visit by the foreign donor. Certain gifts are also retained by the
agency for purposes of official use such as display within offices but it is
clearly understood that the items are the property of the United States.

EXTRACT FROM CIA Th-`1D$ `t
cl. Acceptance of Gifts, Awards and Decorations
(1) Government employees are forbidden by law to give
presents to official superiors or accept them from
employees receiving lower salaries than themselves.
(2) No Agency employee may solicit or accept directly
or indirectly, from any person, corporation, or
group, domestic or foreign, anything of economic
value such as gift, gratuity, or favor, if it might
reasonably be interpreted by others as being of
such a nature that it could affect his impartiality
as an Agency employee, or if the employee has reasons
to believe that the giver
(3)
(a) has or is seeking to obtain contractual or
other business relationships with the Agency;
(b) has interests which may be substantially
affected by the employee's performance or
nonperformance of his official duty; or
(c) is in any way attempting to influence the
employee's official actions.
It is recognized that in certain relationships
arising out of the special functions of this
Agency, --- ------------ -- ----
------- --- -----,* it may be necessary for
operational reason for an employee to partici-
pate in an exchange of gifts. There is no intent
to interfere with such exchanges where operationally
necessary. When a Government employee receives
a gift from someone having a contractual relation-
ship with the Government, there is a presumption
of an intent to influe=nce the employee's official
.decisions or actions. The circumstances of the
---- ------- -----* relationship may serve to
rebut this presumption. Some factors that may
be considered in rebuttal are local custom, the
operational relationship, and the value of the
gift. Employees are to do nothing to encourag?'
the presentation of gifts to themselves and wi"VI
accept gifts only when in their best judgment

refusal would interfere with the relationship
------- --- -------- --- --- ----- * to such a
degree as to result in harm to operations.
(4) No Agency employee may request or otherwise
encourage the presentation of a decoration
.or gift from a foreign government; however,
decorations or other items of honorary value
which are received may be retained by the
recipient, subject to approval by the Director
of Personnel and concurrence of the Secretary
of State.
(5) A gift other than a decoration having a retail
value not exceeding $50 in the United States may
be accepted and retained; but a gift exceeding
$50 in value is deemed to have been accepted on
behalf of the United States and will be deposited
by the donee for use and disposal as the property
of the United States.
(6) Gifts or decorations presented to a member of the
immediate family or household of an employee are
considered gifts or decorations presented to the
employee.
(7)
(8)
Personnel ----- ----- * will, as security --- ----~x
considerations dictate, comply with the regulations
and practices of their -----X organization regarding
acceptance of gifts, money, or other items.
The provisions of this subparagraph do not govern
the acceptance of foreign decorations by military
personnel when authorized by legislation.
e. Reporting Acceptance of Gifts and Decorations
(1)
Report by Employee. If an employee or a member of
his immediate family or household receives a gift
or a decoration from a foreign government, the
employee will immediately submit a memorandum
through channels to the Director of Personnel stating
the names of recipient and donor; an identificd'tiort
or description of the item and its estimated value
if a gift; and other pertinent information.
(2) Responsibilities

Offices will review each report submitted to

them and advise the Director of Personnel of
any security -- ----- * circumstances which
affect the disposition of the gift or award.
(b) The Director of Personnel will
(1) review each report, determine action to
be taken, and advise the employee through
channels regarding. disposition of the gift
or award;
(2) prepare and forward the necessary paper:;
-- ------- ----- -----* when he approves
an employee's retention of a decoration
from a foreign government;
(3) notify the Honor and Merit Awards Board
of foreign awards received by Agency
personnel; and
(4) provide for storage or other disposition
of awards or gifts not approved for reten-
tion by recipients and of items accepted
on behalf of the United States Government,
including for the latter temporary loan to
the recipient if operationally necessary.
(c) The ------- ----- ----- will request through
