Nonproliferation Sanctions

The United States imposes sanctions under various legal authorities against foreign individuals, private entities, and governments that engage in proliferation activities.  Announcements of such sanctions determinations are printed in the Federal Register and can be accessed through the Government Printing Office web page.  Copies of relevant statutes can also be accessed via the same site as well as via the Library of Congress's Congressional Service.  The Federal Register notices are the official notifications for all nonproliferation sanctions determinations.  Links to those notices found on this page are updated as appropriate, but the Federal Register is the only official and complete listing of nonproliferation sanctions determinations.

  
Highlights
President Bush signed an Executive Order 13382 on June 28, 2005 to combat trafficking of weapons of mass destruction and proliferation-related materials by cutting off financing and other support for proliferation networks. The Office of Foreign Assets Control at the Department of the Treasury administers this program.
