The Iran (Sanctions) (Amendment) Regulations 2026 modify two existing UK sanctions regimes covering Iran: the 2019 nuclear-focused regulations and the 2023 general sanctions regulations.

Businesses involved in trade with Iran or financial transactions related to Iranian entities must monitor these amendments for compliance requirements.
