Invoices The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) partners with the United States Coast Guard Finance Center for financial services in support of TSA operations, including the payment of contractor invoices. Therefore, all contractor invoices must be submitted to, and will be paid by, the U.S. Coast Guard Finance Center (FinCen). Invoices may be submitted via U.S. Mail, electronic mail, or facsimile. Contractors shall utilize ONLY ONE method per invoice submission. The submission information for each of the three methods is as follows: (1) U.S. Mail: United States Coast Guard Finance Center TSA Commercial Invoices P.O. Box 4111 Chesapeake, VA 23327-4111 (2) Electronic Mail: Email Invoices FIN-SMB-TSAInvoices@uscg.mil Customer Service 1-757-523-6940 or 1-800-564-5504 Website at www.fincen.uscg.mil The electronic mail address and facsimile number listed above shall be used by contractors for ORIGINAL invoice submission only. If either electronic mail or facsimile submission is utilized, contractors shall not submit hard copies of invoices via the U.S. mail. It is the responsibility of the contractor to verify that invoices are received, regardless of the method of submission used. Contractors may inquire regarding the receipt of invoices by contacting the U.S. Coast Guard Finance Center via the methods listed in subparagraph (e) of this clause. Upon receipt of contractor invoices, FinCen will electronically route invoices to the appropriate TSA Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative and/or Contracting Officer for review and approval. Upon approval, the TSA Contracting Officer will electronically route the invoices back to FinCen. Upon receipt of approved invoices from a TSA Contracting Officer, and the subsequent certification by an Authorized Certifying Official, FinCen will initiate payment of the invoices. Payment Status: Contractors may inquire on the payment status of an invoice by any of the following means: (1) Via the internet: https://www.fincen.uscg.mil/secure/PH_menu.htm Contacting the FinCen Customer Service Section via telephone at (757) 523-6940 (Voice Option #1).

(b) Invoices that fail to provide the information required by the Prompt Payment Clause may be rejected by the Government and returned to the Contractor. Such rejection by the Government does not entitle the Contractor to interest payments from the date of submission of a rejected invoice. Interest payments apply only to proper invoices that are received by the Government. (c) Supplemental Invoice Documentation: Contractors shall submit all supplemental invoice documentation (e.g. copies of subcontractor invoices, travel vouchers, etc) necessary to approve an invoice along with the original invoice. The Contractor invoice must contain the information stated in the Prompt Payment Clause in order to be received and processed by FinCen.
