On July 18th, OFAC updated question #39, and added a new question 38 in Section III (Travel and Carrier Services) of its Cuba Sanctions FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):
38. In the case of a customer traveling to or from Cuba under a specific license, may air carriers, vessel operators, and providers of travel services collect and retain on file the specific license number in lieu of a physical or electronic copy of the license?
Yes. On January 16, 2015, among other changes, OFAC revised the information collection and record retention requirements for persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction providing carrier or travel services to or from Cuba pursuant to § 515.572. OFAC subsequently received public feedback on technical barriers to collecting and retaining copies of licenses for customers traveling to or from Cuba pursuant to a specific license. In order to facilitate authorized Cuba-related travel, for customers traveling pursuant to a specific license, OFAC will consider the collection and retention of specific license numbers to be equivalent to collecting and retaining a copy of the license as required by § 515.572(b)(1). Persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction providing authorized carrier or travel services that choose to collect the specific license number in lieu of the license must maintain a record of that number, as well as the other required information set forth in § 515.572(b)(2), for at least five years.
39. Are airlines, vessel operators, and travel service providers required to verify that an individual traveler is authorized to travel to Cuba?
Persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction providing authorized carrier or travel services must retain for at least five years from the date of the transaction a certification from each customer indicating the provision of the CACR that authorizes the person to travel to Cuba. In the case of a customer traveling under a specific license, a copy of the license or the license number must be maintained on file. The names and addresses of individual travelers must also be maintained on file for at least five years. See 31 CFR § 515.572(b). This information, including certifications and copies of licenses or license numbers, may be maintained electronically.

Circular to Licensed Corporations and Associated Entities
Anti-Money Laundering / Counter-Terrorist Financing
(1) FATF Statement on Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and Iran
(2) FATF Statement on Improving Global AML/CFT Compliance: On-Going Process
(3) Outcomes from the Meeting of the FATF Plenary, 22-24 June 2016
(4) United Nations (Anti-Terrorism Measures) Ordinance
(1) FATF Statement on Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and Iran
Further to our circular issued on 4 March 2016, this is to inform you that the Financial Action Task Force (“FATF”) issued an updated statement on 24 June 2016 identifying a number of jurisdictions that have strategic deficiencies in their anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism (“AML/CFT”) regimes.
The statement Note 1 has been separated into two sections.
(i) Jurisdiction subject to a call on its members and other jurisdictions to apply counter-measures
Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (“DPRK”)
The FATF remains concerned by the DPRK’s failure to address the significant deficiencies in its AML/CFT regime and the serious threat this poses to the integrity of the international financial system. Further, the FATF is concerned about the threat posed by the DPRK’s illicit activities related to the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (“WMDs”) and its financing. The FATF calls on its members and other jurisdictions to apply counter-measures and targeted financial sanctions in accordance with applicable United Nations Security Council Resolutions to protect the international financial system from the on-going and substantial money laundering, terrorist financing and WMD proliferation financing risks emanating from the jurisdiction.
(ii) Jurisdiction subject to a call on its members and other jurisdictions to apply enhanced due diligence measures
Iran
The FATF welcomes Iran’s adoption of an Action Plan to address its strategic AML/CFT deficiencies, and therefore has suspended counter-measures for twelve months. Until Iran implements the measures required to address the deficiencies identified in the Action Plan, the FATF remains concerned with the risk of terrorist financing emanating from Iran and the threat this poses to the integrity of the international financial system. The counter-measures will be re-imposed after the twelve-month period if Iran has not demonstrated sufficient progress in implementing the Action Plan. The FATF calls on its members and other jurisdictions to apply enhanced due diligence measures proportionate to the risks arising from the jurisdiction.
Licensed corporations (“LCs”) and associated entities (“AEs”) should continue to apply the applicable measures specified in our circulars of 15 April 2011 and 31 March 2009 (http://www.sfc.hk/edistributionWeb/gateway/EN/circular/openFile?refNo=H628 & http://www.sfc.hk/edistributionWeb/gateway/EN/circular/openFile?refNo=H545) in relation to transactions associated with DPRK and Iran respectively. LCs and AEs are also reminded to apply relevant guidance as specified in the FATF statement Note 1 and implement appropriate measures and safeguards accordingly. In addition, LCs and AEs are reminded that it is an offence under section 4 of the Weapons of Mass Destruction (Control of Provision of Services) Ordinance (Cap. 526) for a person to provide any services where he believes or suspects, on reasonable grounds, that those services may be connected to WMD proliferation.
(2) FATF Statement on Improving Global AML/CFT Compliance: On-Going Process
In addition, please be informed that in a separate statement as part of the on-going process to improve global AML/CFT compliance, the FATF has set out an updated list of jurisdictions that have strategic AML/CFT deficiencies for which they have developed an action plan with the FATF. The FATF will closely monitor the implementation of those action plans and encourage its members to consider the information presented in the statement which can be found on the website of the FATF (http://www.fatf-gafi.org/publications/high-riskandnon-cooperativejurisdictions/documents/fatf-compliance-june-2016.html).
As the FATF will continue to assess the progress made by these jurisdictions in addressing the deficiencies in their AML/CFT systems and issue updated statements from time to time, LCs and AEs are reminded to browse the website of the FATF for the latest information.
(3) Outcomes from the Meeting of the FATF Plenary, 22-24 June 2016
In addition to the statements in (1) and (2) above, the FATF has also published various other outcomes of its recent Plenary Meeting which may be of interest to LCs and AEs. They include, for example, the Consolidated FATF Standards on Information Sharing. Further information can be found on the website of FATF (http://www.fatf-gafi.org/publications/fatfgeneral/documents/plenary-outcomes-june-2016.html).
(4) United Nations (Anti-Terrorism Measures) Ordinance
Further to our circular issued on 29 April 2016, an updated list specifying terrorists and terrorist associates designated by the United Nations Security Council (“UNSC”) was published under section 4 of the United Nations (Anti-Terrorism Measures) Ordinance (“the UNATMO”) (Cap. 575) in the Gazette on 8 July 2016 (G.N. 3765 of 2016). Three relevant press releases issued by the UNSC, reflecting the updates since the previous list was published in the Gazette (G.N. 2358 of 2016), are attached in Attachment 1.
The aforesaid list can be found on the Government’s website (http://www.gld.gov.hk/egazette/pdf/20162027/egn201620273765.pdf).
LCs and AEs should check the names in the above list against their records, and report any transactions or relationships they have or have had with the named persons or entities to the Joint Financial Intelligence Unit.
Furthermore, LCs and AEs are reminded to refer to Chapter 6 of the Guideline on Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing (“AML Guideline”) which contains guidance on the appropriate measures that LCs and AEs should take to ensure compliance with the UNATMO Note 2.
Should you have any queries regarding the contents of this circular, please contact Ms Kiki Wong on 2231 1569.

Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 2016/1334
Alcon Laboratories (Ft Worth, TX), as well as the Swiss Pharmaceuticals and Management components of the firm, agreed to a $7,617,150 settlement for non-egregious, but not self reported, violations of the Sudan (61 violations) and Iran (452 violations) sanctions program from 2008 through 2011. The firm sold and exported surgical and pharmaceutical products to distributors located in the 2 countries.
The statutory maximum penalty for the violations was $138,982,584 , but the base penalty was $16,927,000.
Tell us, OFAC, how you cut the fine in half…
OFAC considered the following to be aggravating factors in this case:
(1) Alcon demonstrated reckless disregard for U.S. sanctions requirements by having virtually no compliance program, despite significant business involving the exportation of goods from the United States to Iran and Sudan, and by failing to take adequate steps to investigate a third-party freight forwarder’s cessation of shipments to Iran on behalf of Alcon;
(2) Alcon and its then-senior management knew of the conduct giving rise to the Apparent Violations; and
(3) Alcon is a sophisticated multinational corporation with extensive experience in international trade.
OFAC considered the following to be mitigating factors in this case:
(1) harm to U.S. sanctions program objectives was limited because the exports involved medical end-use products that were licensable under the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act of 2000, and in fact had been previously and subsequently licensed by OFAC for Alcon;
(2) Alcon has no prior OFAC sanctions history, including receipt of a Penalty Notice or Finding of Violation in the five years preceding the date of the earliest transaction giving rise to the Apparent Violations, making it eligible for “first violation” mitigation of up to 25 percent;
(3) Alcon took remedial action by ceasing the unlicensed exports to sanctioned countries, initiating an internal investigation of the Apparent Violations, and instituting a robust compliance program that now includes:
(a) updated or newly-created corporate export and trade sanctions compliance documents,
(b) enhanced trade compliance training, and
(c) enhanced compliance procedures for requesting OFAC licenses; and
(4) Alcon substantially cooperated with OFAC’s investigation, including by providing detailed and well-organized information and entering into several statute of limitations tolling agreements with OFAC.
It should be noted that this is a multi-agency settlement – OFAC only gets about $1.3 million, and the Bureau of Industry and Security (since this was an export control issue) gets a piece, too…
