What happened
The State Department designated the International Criminal Court itself, and OFAC added it to the SDN list on Oct. 9, with a wind-down licence running to April 7, 2027. Judge Jesse Furman of the Southern District of New York granted a preliminary injunction in substantial part in Democracy for the Arab World Now v. Trump, finding the services prohibition likely unconstitutional as applied to the plaintiffs, but declined to strike the order down on its face.

What to do
- Organisations with dealings involving the International Criminal Court should check the general licences, including the wind-down authorisation running until April 7, 2027.
- Organisations whose speech or services relate to the Court should review the scope of the preliminary injunction with legal counsel.
