Iran Sanctions Cheat Sheet

This “cheat sheet” shows how and when the United States will suspend and then lift US sanctions on Iran according to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) signed by the P5+1 powers and Iran on July 14, 2015, assuming that Congress does not reject the JCPOA and override a presidential veto and that Iran complies with the International Atomic Energy Agency’s inspections regime. This concise one-pager focuses specifically on US sanctions on Iran, and does not cover their EU or UN equivalents.
