Before and after
Before the order
The United States maintained Burma sanctions before the 2003 order, which added property-blocking and transaction restrictions through emergency authorities.
After the order
The October 2016 presidential termination revoked EO 13310 and ended the associated Burma national emergency; Treasury subsequently unblocked affected names. EO 14118 revoked EO 13310 and terminated the Burma-related national emergency in 2024.
The later presidential action expressly ended this sanctions authority. It did not repeal every independent U.S. export or Burma-related legal restriction.
