AMENDMENTS TO IRANIAN ASSETS CONTROL REGULATIONS

T o A l l B a n k in g I n s titu tio n s
in th e S e c o n d F e d e r a l R e s e r v e D i s t r i c t :

Enclosed are new amendments to the Iranian Assets Control Regulations issued by the Office
of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Treasury Department.
Additional Prohibitions on Dealings w ith Iran

The first set of amendments, effective April 7, 1980, imposes new controls on financial trans­
actions involving Iran, Iranian governmental entities, and persons in Iran. These new controls,
which are contained in new Sections 535.206, 535.422, and 535.423, concern:
(1) Prohibitions against banks making available “any new deposit facilities” or allowing substantial
increases in existing non-dollar deposits.
(2) Prohibitions on extending terms of payment more favorable than customarily used in international
commercial transactions.
(3) A requirement that all rights of creditors against Iran, Iranian governmental entities, or persons in
Iran be exercised in a businesslike manner whenever payments on existing credits or loans are not made in a
timely manner.

The above prohibitions and requirement apply to all United States banks and to their foreign
branches and subsidiaries.
Also included in the first set of-amendments are prohibitions against the following types of
trade, shipping, and service transactions with Iran:
(1) The sale, supply, or other transfer of any items, commodities or products (except food, medicine, or
supplies intended strictly for medical purposes, and donations of clothing) directly or indirectly, regardless of
origin, to or destined for Iran, an Iranian governmental entity in Iran, any other person or body in Iran, or any
other person or body for the purposes of an enterprise carried on in Iran.
(2) The shipment by any United States registered, owned, or controlled vehicle, or carriage by land across
the United States, of any of the above items, commodities, or products.
(3) The shipment of such items from the United States on vessels or aircraft of Iranian registry.
(4) The engaging, by any person subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, in any service con­
tract in support of industrial projects in Iran (except pre-effective-date contracts or those concerned with med­
ical services).

The above trade, shipping, and service prohibitions apply to all persons subject to the jurisdic­
tion of the United States wherever located, except nonbanking foreign subsidiaries of United States
firms. These prohibitions are in addition to the sanctions previously imposed under Section 535.201.

Census of Blocked Iranian Assets

The second set of amendments imposes reporting requirements with respect to blocked Iran­
ian assets and claims by United States nationals against Iran. Reports must be filed on Form
TFR-615 on or before May 15, 1980 with respect to any blocked Iranian assets held between
November 14, 1979 and March 31, 1980 by any person subject to the jurisdiction of the United
States. Reports must be filed on Form TFR-616 on or before May 15, 1980 with respect to claims
by United States nationals against Iran or Iranian entities that arose before April 15, 1980.
A copy of Form TFR-615 and of Form TFR-616, and instructions for their use, are also en­
closed for member banks. Additional copies may be obtained from our Foreign Department (Tel.
No. 212-791-8933).
Inquiries regarding the amendments should be directed to Ernest T. Patrikis, Deputy Gen­
eral Counsel (Tel. No. 212-791-5022), Don N. Ringsmuth, Assistant General Counsel (Tel. No.
212-791-5007), or John Hopkins Heires, Adviser, Foreign Function (Tel. No. 212-791-6816).

Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Office of Foreign Assets
Control is amending the Iranian Assets
Control Regulations by the addition of
§ § 535.615 and 535.616 providing
respectively for a census of blocked
Iranian assets and a census of claims
against Iran and Iranian entities. The
purpose of the amendment is to impose
a requirement that reports be filed (1)
under § 535.615 with respect to blocked
Iranian assets held by any person
subject to the jurisdiction of the United
States between November 1 4 ,1 9 7 9 and
March 31, I960; and (2) under § 535.616
with respect to claims by U.S. nationals
against Iran and Iranian entities. The
need for § 535.615 is to obtain
information on blocked assets, on a one­
time basis, for planning purposes and to
monitor compliance with the
Regulations. The need for § 535.616 is to
obtain information regarding claims of
U.S. nationals against Iran, on a one­
time basis, for planning purposes. The
effect of the amendment will be to
obtain complete and accurate
information on blocked Iranian assets
and on claims of U.S. nationals against
Iran and Iranian entities in order to
further the purposes of Executive Order
No. 12170 and the Regulations.

ment. However, failure to file complete inform ation in a tim ely fashion not only would constitute failure to comply

therefore be prejudicial to the claim ant and other U.S. claimants.
