A corrigendum to Council Decision (CFSP) 2026/455, published on 23 July 2026, corrects a technical error in the original legal act on restrictive measures to combat terrorism. The corrigendum ensures the correct legal references and procedural steps are reflected in the decision, which was adopted on 26 February 2026.
The original decision repealed Articles 2, 3 and 3a of Common Position 2001/931/CFSP, as well as Decisions (CFSP) 2025/1577 and (CFSP) 2026/421, consolidating the EU's autonomous sanctions regime against terrorism. The corrigendum does not alter the substance of the measures but rectifies a drafting mistake, likely to avoid legal challenges or implementation issues.
The decision impacts individuals and entities subject to asset freezes and travel bans under the EU's counter-terrorism framework. National authorities in EU member states are responsible for implementing the corrected provisions. The corrigendum has no direct effect on listed parties, as it only addresses a procedural error in the original text.
No further institutional follow-up is expected, as the corrigendum is a routine legal correction. The Council's Legal Service typically handles such amendments to ensure legal certainty.
