For more information on this specific action, please visit our Recent Actions page.

OFAC has posted a frequently asked question in connection with the President's announcement on changes to U.S. policy with respect to Cuba.

Q.  How will OFAC implement the changes to the Cuba sanctions program announced by the President on December 17, 2014?  Are the changes effective immediately?

A.  OFAC will implement the Treasury-specific changes via amendments to its Cuban Assets Control Regulations. The Department of Commerce will implement the remainder of the changes via amendments to its Export Administration Regulations.  OFAC expects to issue its regulatory amendments in the coming weeks.  None of the announced changes takes effect until the new regulations are issued.
