BANK MELLI IRAN
Sanctions programs
Each code is OFAC's program tag; its name and whether it is a blocking program come from OFAC's program tag definitions. When it began and ended are OFAC's dates, from its listings and its records of changes to them.
Blocking sanctions measures
Blocked: on the SDN List
On OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List since Nov 5, 2018. A party on the SDN List is blocked: its property and interests in property in the United States or in the possession or control of a U.S. person are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from dealing with it. OFAC's list records the programs, not which of them the block rests on. What the list records, not legal advice on what applies to a particular transaction.
Non-blocking sanctions measures
Measures OFAC's list records for this designation that are not a block on property. Each short label is ours; the quoted text under it is OFAC's own wording. This is what the list records, not legal advice on what applies to a particular transaction. What these measures are.

Timeline
Dates are OFAC's. On the SDN List, the programs a party was designated under and each change to them come from OFAC's yearly files of changes to the SDN List (1994 to 2022) and, from Sep 22, 2022, its record of program tag changes; on the Consolidated (non-SDN) List, from that record only. Where those records do not reach or do not reconcile, the line says only what they show.
