Abstract:
FinCEN, to comply with the congressional mandate to prescribe regulations under section 104(e) of the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act of 2010 ("CISADA") and consistent with its statutory mission under 31 U.S.C. 310, issued regulations that would require a U.S. bank that maintains a correspondent account for a foreign bank to inquire of the foreign bank, and report to FinCEN, with respect to whether the foreign bank maintains a correspondent account for, or has processed one or more transfers of funds within the preceding 90 calendar days, other than through a correspondent account, related to any financial institution designated by the U.S. Government in connection with Iran's proliferation of weapons of mass destruction or delivery systems for weapons of mass destruction, or in connection with Iran's support for international terrorism. In addition, FinCEN is requiring a U.S. bank that maintains a correspondent account for a foreign bank to inquire of the foreign bank, and report to FinCEN, with respect to whether the foreign bank has processed one or more transfers of funds within the preceding 90 calendar days related to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps ("IRGC") or any of its agents or affiliates designated by the U.S. Government. Under the regulations, U.S. banks will only be required to report this information to FinCEN upon receiving a specific written request from FinCEN.

Short Statement:
The estimated total annual burden hours decreased by 1,005 hours from 2,825 hours in 2018 to 1,820 hours in 2022. The burden per CISADA-related report from U.S. banks that maintain correspondent accounts for specified foreign banks remained at 3 hours per response. The burden per CISADA-related report from U.S. banks that do not maintain correspondent accounts for specified foreign banks remained at 30 minutes per response. The reduction in burden is a result of a combination of a decrease in the estimated total number of CISADA-related reports from 1,150 in 2018 to 1,040 in 2022, and a decrease in the estimated number of CISADA-related reports from U.S. banks that maintain correspondent accounts for specified foreign banks from 900 in 2018 to 520 in 2022.
