Iran (Sanctions) (Nuclear) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 [SI 2019 No. 461]

These Regulations are intended to ensure that the UK can operate an effective sanctions regime in relation to Iran after the UK leaves the EU. The regulations will replace, with substantially the same effect, the EU sanctions regime relating to Iran’s nuclear weapons programmes that is currently in force under EU legislation and related UK regulations. This sanctions regime also gives effect to the UK’s obligations under United Nations Security Council resolution 2231. This instrument also applies to conduct by UK persons outside the UK.
