Guidance on when, why and how you should submit a SAR (Suspicious Activity Report) has been updated by the UK Financial Intelligence Unit.
The updated guidance, together will all other UKFIU products, can be accessed via the NCA website using this link:
UKFIU Guidance Library.
The new documents are:
Chapter 1: Using the SAR Portal
Chapter 2: Submitting a SAR
Chapter 3: Understanding DAMLs and DATFs
You should read through the new library and acquaint yourself with the new guidance.
If you have downloaded and stored any of the UKFIU's previous SAR guidance, you are advised to remove this as it is now out of date. ICB will be doing the same.
If you have any queries, there are contact details in the library for the UKFIU , but feel free to contact the ICB AML Team at
aml@bookkeepers.org.uk or on 0203 405 4000.
Please note that if you are submitting a SAR you must inform the ICB AML Team and retain a copy for inspection.
