Description
The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is amending the Terrorism List Governments Sanctions Regulations to implement changes resulting from the rescission of the designation of Syria as a State Sponsor of Terrorism. Specifically, OFAC is removing and reserving a Syria-specific general license because the authorization is no longer necessary following the rescission. The rule aligns the sanctions regulations with current policy and is effective September 25, 2026. Comments on the rule can be submitted via the provided regulations.gov link.
