What the agency says
The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is adopting a final rule amending multiple CFR parts to update general licenses authorizing payments for legal services from funds originating outside the United States. Specifically, OFAC is replacing the reporting requirement in the general license with a recordkeeping requirement in applicable parts of 31 CFR chapter V. Additionally, in two CFR parts, OFAC is updating the general licenses authorizing the provision of certain legal services and adding a general license authorizing payment for legal services from funds originating outside the United States.
