It is our understanding that OMB Circular A-133 "Audits of Institutions
of Higher Education and Other Nonprofit Organizations", as amended in
April 1996, is no longer applicable to foreign (non USA) institutions -
see under #4 "Policy":
"This Circular does not apply to non-U.S. based entities expending Federal
awards received either directly as a recipient or indirectly as a
subrecipient."
