United States Suspends Sudan Sanctions

Alert

In response to “positive actions” taken by the Government of Sudan over the past six months, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) announced today an amendment to the Sudanese Sanctions Regulations (“SSR,” 31 C.F.R. Part 538) that effectively suspends virtually all of the U.S. sanctions against Sudan by authorizing through a general license (hereinafter, the “General License”) all transactions otherwise prohibited by the SSR and two related executive orders (13067 and 13412). The General License will take effect when it is published in the Federal Register, which is scheduled to occur on Tuesday, January 17, 2017.
