TURBOFAC Commentary (640 words)

Notes:

FAQ amended on 6-5-24 in light of changes to the “official business” GL at 542.513. Edits were generally just to conform the text of the FAQ to the new terms of 542.513, OFAC also changed the secondary sanctions risk paragraph such that “engaging in the above activities that are authorized or exempt for U.S. persons under the SySR” was changed to “engaging in the above activities for which a U.S. person would not require a specific license”. This is to conform with 542.414. OFAC also added a reference to the GL at 542.533.

Note that the comments below appear as they did prior to the 6-5-24 amendment.
