TURBOFAC Commentary (100 words)

Notes:

This FAQ was issued concurrently with OFAC’s 6-5-24 amendments to the SySR, which make the changes described below (among others, as described in the comments to the amended and added regulatory provisions). See also the FR notice announcing the changes at https://ofac.treasury.gov/media/932911/download?inline).

This FAQ does not provide much in the way of interpretive guidance, but it is notable for it’s characterization of the changes to 542.512 as ones that “clarify which types of persons are covered by the NGO GL,” as opposed to “expand” the scope of the GL. See comments to 542.512.
