OFAC FAQ #244 · Iran Sanctions
What effect will the Iranian Transaction and Sanctions Regulations (ITSR) have on Iranian-Americans and the people of Iran?
OFAC's answer
The [ITSR](https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=0107483c0b76405828ee0a5fcb047046&tpl=/ecfrbrowse/Title31/31cfr560_main_02.tpl) include several general licenses that newly authorize, or continue to authorize, activities that are otherwise prohibited by the regulations. Categories of activities affected by these changes include, among other things, visa-related transactions, journalistic activities in Iran, the sale of real property in Iran and the transfer of related proceeds to the United States, educational activities (including certain exchange programs), participation in conferences, and the exportation and reexportation of medicine and basic medical supplies to Iran.
