amending Regulation (EU) No 267/2012 concerning restrictive measures against Iran and repealing Regulation (EU) No 961/2010


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 (CFSP) 2026/762 of 30 March 2026 amending Decision 2010/413/CFSP concerning restrictive measures against Iran (1),


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

Whereas:







(1)


On 26 July 2010, the Council adopted Decision 2010/413/CFSP (2) and on 23 March 2012, the Council adopted Regulation (EU) No 267/2012 (3), concerning restrictive measures against Iran.












(2)


On 29 September 2025, following the re-imposition of the United Nations (UN) nuclear-related sanctions on Iran in line with United Nations Security Council (UNSC) Resolution 2231 (2015), the Council adopted Decision (CFSP) 2025/1972 (4) which amended Decision 2010/413/CFSP and re-imposed all Union nuclear-related sanctions on Iran that had been suspended or terminated under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.












(3)


In particular, the Council decided to re-impose the prohibition on the direct or indirect supply, sale or transfer dual-use goods and technology listed in Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 428/2009 (5) for the use in, or benefit of, Iran.












(4)


On 20 May 2021, the Union adopted Regulation (EU) 2021/821 of the European Parliament and of the Council (6). That Regulation repealed Regulation (EC) No 428/2009.












(5)


Regulation (EU) No 267/2012 should therefore be amended accordingly,
