A bill to prohibit the importation into the United States of all products of Iran, and for other purposes.

Summary

Prohibits the importation of products from Iran. Requires the Commissioner of Customs to take actions to implement such import prohibition, including actions to prevent its circumvention through indirect shipment. Permits the President to delay imposition of such import prohibition for up to 180 days if it is in the national interest. Requires the President to submit to the Congress a report that explains the reason for any such delay and specifies how the national interest would be jeopardized if import prohibitions were implemented immediately. Permits the Congress to extend such delay by joint resolution. Permits the President to terminate such import prohibition if he determines and reports to the Congress that Iran: (1) has ceased belligerent activities against non-belligerent parties in the Persian Gulf; and (2) has given satisfactory assurances that it will not resume such activities. Permits the President to reinstate such prohibition if Iran violates such assurance.
