Abstract

This document amends the Customs Regulations to more clearly provide that Customs enforces the laws and regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the Department of the Treasury regarding economic sanctions applicable to those countries that have been designated by the President as constituting a threat to the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States. Currently, the Customs Regulations refer to OFAC regulations only in the context of merchandise arriving by mail. This document clarifies that Customs enforces the laws and regulations administered by OFAC regardless of how subject merchandise, services, and technology arrive in or depart from the U.S.
