FINTRAC updated its compliance guidance on financial transactions involving jurisdictions identified by FATF on 2026-03-02. For transactions related to DPRK and Iran, reporting entities must conduct identity verification and customer due diligence and retain records; transactions related to Iran must also all be reported to FINTRAC. For transactions related to Myanmar, entities must assess their obligations to file suspicious transaction reports and conduct enhanced due diligence. The guidance also lists the 22 jurisdictions on FATF’s list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring, with no jurisdictions removed from the list.
