How long does a sanctions delisting challenge typically take?

Timelines vary significantly by jurisdiction and procedure. Administrative reviews before OFAC typically take 6–18 months, though complex cases extend longer. EU judicial challenges before the General Court average 18–30 months to judgment, with expedited procedures available in urgent cases. UK administrative review requests to OFSI should receive initial response within 28 days, but substantive reconsideration takes 3–12 months. UN Ombudsperson proceedings under the 1267 regime require approximately 8–10 months. During proceedings, interim relief applications can sometimes achieve partial asset access or travel permissions pending final determination.
