The Government is proud of the principled stand that the Overseas Territories and the Crown Dependencies have taken in relation to implementing sanctions. UK sanctions apply in all Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies. The elected leaders of the Territories have publicly confirmed their commitment to continuing to uphold the highest international standards of transparency and accountability. The Overseas Territories and the Crown Dependencies cooperate with the UK on taxation, fighting financial crime and sanctions enforcement. They continue to share valuable information on company beneficial ownership with UK law authorities, under the Exchange of Notes process.
