Already scheduled

v2.4
CorrectionOmanapostille: no → yes

Oman is a party to the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention and has been since 30 January 2012. Our earlier “confirm before relying” flag was simply wrong. Public documents from Oman need an apostille only — no consular legalisation.

CorrectionVietnamapostille: yes → no

Vietnam acceded to the Apostille Convention on 31 December 2025, but accession is not entry into force. The Convention only enters into force for Vietnam on 11 September 2026. Until that date consular legalisation is still required, so we flipped the flag back to “no”.

Review pass

FATF re-verified against the 17–19 June 2026 plenary. The grey list stands at 22 jurisdictions; of those, only Bulgaria, Kenya, Kuwait, Vietnam and the British Virgin Islands are tracked here, and all five were already flagged correctly. June's additions (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iraq) and removals (Algeria, Namibia) fall outside this dataset. Black list unchanged: DPRK, Iran, Myanmar.
