On 10 June 2025, the European Commission adopted a Delegated Regulation (C(2025) 3815) to amend the existing list of high-risk third countries. The [Commission now introduces a new Article 1a to that regulation](https://ec.europa.eu/transparency/documents-register/detail?ref=C(2025)4724&lang=en).

This new article sets a deadline of 31 December 2025 for the Commission to review third countries that are not (yet) identified as being subject to calls for action or increased monitoring by the FATF, but whose membership is suspended. 

Such countries may still pose significant AML/CFT risks. By introducing this review obligation, the EU aims to respond more quickly to emerging threats in the AML landscape.
