This procedure aims to establish common rules across the EU for defining criminal offenses and penalties related to the violation of Union restrictive measures, also known as sanctions. It seeks to ensure consistent enforcement and deter circumvention.

This impacts individuals and entities found to be violating EU sanctions, potentially leading to criminal prosecution and penalties. It strengthens the EU's ability to enforce its foreign policy and security objectives.
