EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

On  26  July  2010,  the  Council  approved  Decision  2010/413/CFSP  confirming  the 
restrictive measures taken since 2007 and providing for additional restrictive measures 
against Iran in order to comply with UN Security Council Resolution 1929 (2010) and 
accompanying measures as requested by the European Council in its Declaration of 17 
June 2010. 

These  restrictive  measures  comprise  in  particular  additional  restrictions  on  trade  in 
dual-use  goods  and  technology  and  equipment  which  might  be  used  for  internal 
repression, restrictions on trade in key equipment for, and on investment in, the Iranian 
oil  and  gas  industry,  restrictions  on  Iranian  investment  in  the  uranium  mining  and 
nuclear  industry,  restrictions  on  transfers  of  funds  to  and  from  Iran,  restrictions 
concerning  the  Iranian  banking  sector,  restrictions  on  Iran’s  access  to  the  insurance 
and  bonds  markets  of  the  Union  and  restrictions  on  providing  certain  services  to 
Iranian ships and cargo aircraft.  

The Council also provided for additional categories of persons to be made subject to 
the freezing of funds and economic resources and certain other, technical amendments 
to existing measures. 

The restrictive measures concerning dual-use goods should be broadened to cover all 
goods and technology of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 428/2009, with the exception 
of  certain  items  in  its  Category  5.  Category  5  goods  and  technology  which  are 
currently  subject  to  prohibition  should,  however,  remain  subject  to  prohibition.  It  is 
also appropriate to impose a prohibition on some of the goods and technology which 
were  previously  subject  to  an  export  authorisation  requirement  under  Article  3  of 
Regulation 423/2007. 

A  list  of  key  goods  and  technology  in  the  oil  and  gas  sector  should  be  provided  in 
order  to  ensure  effective  implementation  of  restrictive  measures  by  economic 
operators  and  customs  administrations.  A  supplementary  proposal  for  the  list  of  key 
equipment and technology for the oil and natural gas industry referred to in Article 8 
of the proposed Regulation, will be made under separate cover. 

Restrictions on investment in the oil and gas sector should cover certain key activities, 
such as transmission services, in order to be effective, while for the same reason, the 
restrictions  should  apply  to  joint  ventures  as  well  as  other  forms  of  associations  and 
cooperation in the oil and gas sector.  

Effective  restrictions  on  Iranian  investment  in  the  Union  require  that  measures  be 
taken  to  prohibit  that  natural  or  legal  persons,  entities  and  bodies  subject  to  the 
jurisdiction of the Union enable or authorise such investment. 

It is therefore necessary to amend and supplement Regulation (EC) No 423/2007 of 19 
April  2007  concerning  restrictive  measures  against  Iran.  For  the  sake  of  clarity,  the 
Commission and the High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security 
Policy propose to replace it by a new, consolidated Regulation.

Proposal for a 

COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No …/2010 

on restrictive measures against Iran and repealing Regulation (EC) No 423/2007 

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 

Having  regard  to  the  Treaty  on  the  Functioning  of  the  European  Union,  and  in  particular 
Article 215 thereof, 

Having  regard  to  Council  Decision  2010/413/CFSP  of  26  July  2010  concerning  restrictive 
measures against Iran and repealing Common Position 2007/140/CFSP1, 

Having  regard  to  the  joint  proposal  from  the  High  Representative  of  the  Union  for  Foreign 
Affairs and Security Policy and the Commission, 

Whereas: 

(1) 

(2) 

(3) 

(4) 

On  26  July  2010,  the  Council  approved  Decision  2010/413/CFSP  confirming  the 
restrictive measures taken since 2007 and providing for additional restrictive measures 
against the Islamic Republic of Iran (hereinafter referred to as Iran) in order to comply 
with UN Security Council Resolution 1929 (2010) as well as accompanying measures 
as requested by the European Council in its Declaration of 17 June 2010. 

These  restrictive  measures  comprise  in  particular  additional  restrictions  on  trade  in 
dual-use goods and technology as well as equipment which might be used for internal 
repression,  restrictions  on  trade  in  key  equipment  and  technology  for,  and  on 
investment in, the Iranian oil and gas industry, restrictions on Iranian investment in the 
uranium  mining  and  nuclear  industry,  restrictions  on  transfers  of  funds  to  and  from 
Iran, restrictions concerning the Iranian banking sector, restrictions on Iran’s access to 
the  insurance  and  bonds  markets  of  the  Union  and  restrictions  on  providing  certain 
services to Iranian ships and cargo aircraft.  

The Council also provided for additional categories of persons to be made subject to 
the freezing of funds and economic resources and certain other, technical amendments 
to existing measures. 

The  obligation  to  freeze  economic  resources  of  designated  entities  of  the  Islamic 
Republic of Iran Shipping Lines (IRISL) does not require the impounding or detention 
of  vessels  owned  by  such  entities  or  the  cargoes  carried  by  them  insofar  as  such 
cargoes belong to third parties, nor does it require the detention of the crew contracted 
by them,

These measures fall within the scope of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European 
Union  and,  therefore,  notably  with  a  view  to  ensuring  their  uniform  application  by 
economic  operators  in  all  Member  States,  legislation  at  the  level  of  the  Union  is 
necessary in order to implement them as far as the Union is concerned. 

Regulation  (EC)  No  423/2007  of  19  April  2007  concerning  restrictive  measures 
against Iran2 as amended enacts the restrictive measures taken by the Union further to 
Common  Position  2007/140/CFSP  as  amended3.  For  the  sake  of  clarity,  Regulation 
(EC) No 423/2007 should be repealed in its entirety and replaced by this Regulation. 

The  revised  restrictive  measures  concerning  dual-use  goods  should  cover  all  goods 
and  technology  of  Annex  I  to  Regulation  (EC)  No  428/2009,  with  the  exception  of 
certain items in its Category 5. Category 5 items which relate to nuclear and missile 
technology and are currently subject to prohibition should, however, remain subject to 
prohibition.  Moreover,  it  is  also  appropriate  to  impose  a  prohibition  on  some  of  the 
goods  and  technology  which  were  previously  subject  to  an  export  authorisation 
requirement under Article 3 of Regulation 423/2007. 

A  list  of  key  goods  and  technology  in  the  oil  and  gas  sector  should  be  provided  in 
order  to  ensure  effective  implementation  of  restrictive  measures  by  economic 
operators and customs administrations.  

Restrictions on investment in the oil and gas sector should cover certain key activities, 
such as transmission services, in order to be effective, while for the same reason, the 
restrictions  should  apply  to  joint  ventures  as  well  as  other  forms  of  associations  and 
cooperation in the oil and gas sector.  

(10)  Effective  restrictions  on  Iranian  investment  in  the  Union  require  that  measures  be 
taken  to  prohibit  that  natural  or  legal  persons,  entities  and  bodies  subject  to  the 
jurisdiction of the Union enable or authorise such investment. 

(11) 

In order to ensure consistency with Directive 2005/60/EC of the European Parliament 
and  of  the  Council  of  26  October  2005  on  the prevention  of  the  use  of  the  financial 
system  for  the  purpose  of  money  laundering  and  terrorist  financing4,  this  Regulation 
follows the same definitions of the terms "financial institution" and "credit institution" 
as that Directive. 

(12)  This Regulation respects the fundamental rights and observes the principles recognised 
in particular by the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and notably 
the right to an effective remedy and to a fair trial, the right to property and the right to 
protection  of  personal  data.  This  Regulation  should  be  applied  in  accordance  with 
those rights and principles. 

(13)  Decision 2010/413/CFSP makes provision for a review procedure to be followed when 
a  natural  or  legal  person,  entity  or  body  is  included  in  Annex  I  or  Annex  II  to  that 
Decision.  The  listing  procedures  for  the  purpose  of  freezing  funds  and  economic 
resources under this Regulation should not duplicate these procedures.

in accordance with the Regulation, should be made public. Any processing of personal 
data  of  natural  persons  under  this  Regulation  should  respect  Regulation  (EC)  No

to  receive  a  transfer  of  funds  having  a  value  of  Euro  10 000  or  more  from  a 
person, entity or body in Iran;

a person, entity or body in Iran, or to execute transfers of funds having a value 
of Euro 10 000 or more to a person, entity or body in Iran. 

These prohibitions shall apply regardless of whether the transfer of funds is executed 
in a single operation or in several operations which appear to be linked.  

The  prohibitions  in  paragraph  1  shall  not  apply  to  transfers  of  funds  that  are 
payments due for the supply of foodstuffs or medical equipment or for the provision 
of  healthcare,  or  that  are  made  for  humanitarian  purposes,  provided  the  transfer  of 
funds has been notified in writing to one of the competent authorities of the Member 
States, as identified in the websites listed in Annex V. 

The  transfer  of  funds  shall  be  so  notified  by  the  natural  or  legal  person,  entity  or 
body giving the order for a transfer of funds or, if that person, entity or body giving 
the order does not fall within the scope of Article 36, by the natural or legal person, 
entity or body receiving and executing the order for the transfer of funds.  

The  prohibitions  in  paragraph  1  shall  not  apply  to  transfers  having  a  value  below 
Euro 40 000 other than those referred in paragraph 2, if the natural or legal person, 
entity  or  body  giving  the  order  or,  where  that  person,  entity  or  body  does  not  fall 
within  the  scope  of  Article  36,  the  person,  entity  or  body  executing  the  transfer  of

The competent authorities of the Member States, as identified in the websites listed 
in Annex V, may grant, under such terms and conditions as they deem appropriate, 
an authorisation for a transfer of funds having a value of Euro 40 000 or more, unless 
they  determine  that  the  transfer  of  funds  for  which  an  authorisation  is  requested, 
would contribute to one of the following activities: 

(a) 

Iran's enrichment-related, reprocessing or heavy water-related activities; 

(b) 

the development of nuclear weapon delivery systems by Iran; 

(c) 

(d) 

the  pursuit  by  Iran  of  activities  related  to  other  topics  about  which  the  IAEA 
has expressed concerns or identified as outstanding; or 

the exploration of crude oil and natural gas, production of crude oil and natural 
gas, refining, or liquefaction of natural gas by an Iranian enterprise. 

An  authorisation  shall  be  deemed  granted,  if  a  competent  authority  has  received  a 
request  in  writing  for  an  authorisation  and,  within  four  weeks,  the  competent 
authority has not objected in writing to the transfer of funds. If the objection is raised 
because  an  investigation  is  pending,  the  competent  authority  shall  state  this  and 
communicate  its  decision  as  soon  as  possible.  The  authorisation  shall  be  deemed 
granted if no decision is communicated four weeks from the raising of the objection. 

The  Member  State  concerned  shall  inform  the  other  Member  States  and  the 
Commission when it rejects a request for an authorisation. 

The  Member  States  shall  assist  each  other  upon  request  where  necessary  for  the 
purpose of an investigation. 

Paragraph 1 shall not apply where an authorisation for a transfer has been granted in 
accordance with Article 17, 18 or 19.  

Article 22 

Branches and subsidiaries of credit and financial institutions domiciled in Iran falling 
within  the  scope  of  Article  36,  as  listed  in  Annex  IX,  shall  notify  the  competent 
authority  of  the  Member  State  where  they  are  established,  as  identified  in  the 
websites listed in Annex V, of all transfers of funds carried out or received by them, 
the  names  of  the  parties,  the  amount  and  the  date  of  the  transaction,  within  five 
working days after carrying out or receiving the transfer of funds concerned. If the 
information  is  available,  the  notification  must  specify  the  nature  of  the  transaction 
and, where appropriate, the nature of the goods covered by the transaction and must, 
in particular, state whether the goods are covered by Annex I, II, III, IV or VI of this 
Regulation and, if their export is subject to authorisation, indicate the number of the 
licence granted. 

Subject to, and in accordance with, the information-sharing arrangements, the other 
notified competent authorities shall without delay transmit these data, as necessary, 
in  order  to  prevent  any  transaction  that  could  contribute  to  proliferation-sensitive 
nuclear activities or to the development of nuclear weapons delivery systems, to the

Article 23 

1. 

Credit and financial institutions which come within the scope of Article 36 shall, in 
their activities with credit and financial institutions referred to in paragraph 2, and in 
order  to  prevent  such  activities  contributing  to  proliferation-sensitive  nuclear 
activities or to the development of nuclear weapon delivery systems: 

(a) 

(b) 

exercise  continuous  vigilance  over  account  activity,  particularly  through  their 
programmes on customer due diligence and under their obligations relating to 
money laundering and financing of terrorism; 

require  that  in  payment  instructions  all  information  fields  which  relate  to  the 
originator  and  beneficiary  of  the  transaction  in  question  be  completed  and  if 
that information is not supplied, refuse the transaction; 

(c)  maintain all records of  transactions for  a  period  of  five  years  and  make  them 

available to national authorities on request; 

(d) 

if they suspect or have reasonable grounds to suspect that funds are related to 
proliferation  financing,  promptly  report  their  suspicions  to  the  financial 
intelligence  unit  (FIU)  or  to  another  competent  authority  designated  by  the 
Member  State  concerned,  as  indicated  on  the  websites  listed  in  Annex  V, 
without  prejudice  to  Articles  5  and  16.  The  FIU  or  such  other  competent 
authority will serve as a national centre for receiving and analysing suspicious 
transaction reports regarding potential proliferation financing. The FIU or such 
other competent authority shall have access, directly or indirectly, on a timely 
basis  to  the  financial,  administrative  and  law  enforcement  information  that  it 
requires  to  properly  undertake  this  function,  including  the  analysis  of 
suspicious transaction reports. 

The above requirements for credit and financial institutions shall be complementary 
to  existing  obligations  deriving  from  Regulation  1781/200617  and  from  the 
implementation of Directive 2005/60/EC. 

2.
