On June 30, the President issued an Executive Order "Providing for the Revocation of Syria Sanctions" that removes U.S. sanctions on Syria, effective July 1, 2025. To implement the President's action, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has issued four new Syria Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs 1220-1223).
OFAC previously issued Syria General License (GL) 25, which authorizes transactions otherwise prohibited by the Syrian Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR part 542. To the extent still necessary, persons may continue to rely on GL 25 and the related Syria GL 25 Fact Sheet, which OFAC originally issued on May 28, 2025.
Accordingly, the OFAC Syria-related sanctions program has become the Promoting Accountability for Assad and Regional Stabilization Sanctions (PAARSS) program.
This has resulted in the updates and removals to OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List) and Sectoral Sanctions Identifications List (SSI List). Please visit this page to access the latest version of the SDN list and the SSI list. Check this page periodically as it may also be updated if a new list-related format or product is offered.
