               Security Council                                              Distr.: General
                                                                             2 March 2016




               Resolution 2270 (2016)
               Adopted by the Security Council at its 7638th meeting, on
               2 March 2016

                    The Security Council,
                     Recalling its previous relevant resolutions, including resolution 825 (1993),
               resolution 1540 (2004), resolution 1695 (2006), resolution 1718 (2006), resolution
               1874 (2009), resolution 1887 (2009), resolution 2087 (2013) and resolution 2094
               (2013), as well as the statements of its President of 6 October 2006
               (S/PRST/2006/41), 13 April 2009 (S/PRST/2009/7) and 16 April 2012
               (S/PRST/2012/13),
                    Reaffirming that proliferation of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, as
               well as their means of delivery, constitutes a threat to international peace and
               security,
                     Expressing gravest concern at the nuclear test conducted by the Democratic
               People’s Republic of Korea (“the DPRK”) on 6 January 2016 in violation of
               resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013) and 2094 (2013), and at the
               challenge such a test constitutes to the Treaty on Non-Proliferation of Nuclear
               Weapons (“the NPT”) and to international efforts aimed at strengthening the global
               regime of non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, and the danger it poses to peace
               and stability in the region and beyond,
                    Underlining once again the importance that the DPRK respond to other
               security and humanitarian concerns of the international community,
                    Underlining also that measures imposed by this resolution are not intended to
               have adverse humanitarian consequences for the civilian population DPRK,
                    Regretting the DPRK’s diversion of financial, technical and industrial
               resources toward developing its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile program, and
               condemning its declared intent to develop nuclear weapons,
                    Expressing deep concern at the grave hardship that the DPRK people are
               subjected to,
                     Expressing great concern that the DPRK’s arms sales have generated revenues
               that are diverted to the pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles while
               DPRK citizens have great unmet needs,

S/RES/2270 (2016)


                    Expressing serious concern that the DPRK has continued to violate relevant
               Security Council resolutions through repeated launches of ballistic missiles in 2014
               and 2015, as well as the submarine-launched ballistic missile ejection test in 2015
               and noting that all such ballistic missile activities contribute to the DPRK’s
               development of nuclear weapons delivery systems and increase tension in the region
               and beyond,
                    Expressing continued concern that the DPRK is abusing the privileges and
               immunities accorded under the Vienna Conventions on Diplomatic and Consular
               Relations,
                    Expressing its gravest concern that the DPRK’s ongoing nuclear-, and ballistic
               missile-related activities have further generated increased tension in the region and
               beyond, and determining that there continues to exist a clear threat to international
               peace and security,
                   Acting under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, and taking
               measures under its Article 41,
                     1.   Condemns in the strongest terms the nuclear test conducted by the DPRK
               on 6 January 2016 in violation and flagrant disregard of the Council’s relevant
               resolutions, and further condemns the DPRK’s launch of 7 February 2016, which
               used ballistic missile technology and was in serious violation of resolutions 1718
               (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), and 2094 (2013);
                    2.    Reaffirms its decisions that the DPRK shall not conduct any further
               launches that use ballistic missile technology, nuclear tests, or any other
               provocation, and shall suspend all activities related to its ballistic missile program
               and in this context re-establish its pre-existing commitments to a moratorium on
               missile launches, and demands that the DPRK immediately comply fully with these
               obligations;
                    3.    Reaffirms its decisions that the DPRK shall abandon all nuclear weapons
               and existing nuclear programs in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner, and
               immediately cease all related activities;
                     4.   Reaffirms its decision that the DPRK shall abandon all other existing
               weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile programs in a complete, verifiable
               and irreversible manner;
                     5.     Reaffirms that, pursuant to paragraph 8 (c) of resolution 1718 (2006), all
               Member States shall prevent any transfers to the DPRK by their nationals or from
               their territories, or from the DPRK by its nationals or from its territory, of technical
               training, advice, services or assistance related to the provision, manufacture,
               maintenance or use of nuclear-related, ballistic missile-related or other weapons of
               mass destruction-related items, materials, equipment, goods and technology, and
               underscores that this provision prohibits the DPRK from engaging in any form of
               technical cooperation with other Member States on launches using ballistic missile
               technology, even if characterized as a satellite launch or space launch vehicle;
                     6.   Decides that the measures in paragraph 8 (a) of resolution 1718 (2006)
               shall also apply to all arms and related materiel, including small arms and light
               weapons and their related materiel, as well as to financial transactions, technical
               training, advice, services or assistance related to the provision, manufacture,
               maintenance or use of such arms and related materiel;


2/19                                                                                                      16-03394

                                                                                                  S/RES/2270 (2016)


                 7.   Affirms that the obligations imposed in paragraphs 8 (a), 8 (b) and 8 (c)
           of resolution 1718 (2006), as extended by paragraphs 9 and 10 of reso lution 1874
           (2009), apply with respect to the shipment of items to or from the DPRK for repair,
           servicing, refurbishing, testing, reverse-engineering, and marketing, regardless of
           whether ownership or control is transferred, and underscores that the measures
           specified in paragraph 8 (e) of resolution 1718 (2006) shall also apply to any
           individual traveling for the purposes of carrying out the activities described in this
           paragraph;
                 8.   Decides that the measures imposed in paragraphs 8 (a) and 8 (b) of
           resolution 1718 (2006) shall also apply to any item, except food or medicine, if the
           State determines that such item could directly contribute to the development of the
           DPRK’s operational capabilities of its armed forces, or to exports that support or
           enhance the operational capabilities of armed forces of another Member State
           outside the DPRK, and decides also that this provision shall cease to apply to the
           supply, sale or transfer of an item, or its procurement, if:
                 (a) the State determines that such activity is exclusively for humanitarian
           purposes or exclusively for livelihood purposes which will not be used by DPRK
           individuals or entities to generate revenue, and also not related to any activity
           prohibited by resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (201 3), 2094 (2013) or
           this resolution, provided that the State notifies the Committee in advance of such
           determination and also informs the Committee of measures taken to prevent the
           diversion of the item for such other purposes, or
                (b) the Committee has determined on a case-by-case basis that a particular
           supply, sale or transfer would not be contrary to the objectives of resolutions 1718
           (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) or this resolution;
                 9.   Recalls that paragraph 9 of resolution 1874 (2009) requires States to
           prohibit the procurement from the DPRK of technical training, advice, services or
           assistance related to the provision, manufacture, maintenance or use of arms and
           related materiel, and clarifies that this paragraph prohibits States from engaging in
           the hosting of trainers, advisors, or other officials for the purpose of military -,
           paramilitary- or police-related training;
                 10. Decides that the measures specified in paragraph 8 (d) of resolution 1718
           (2006) shall apply also to the individuals and entities listed in Annex I and II of this
           resolution and to any individuals or entities acting on their behalf or at their
           direction, and to entities owned or controlled by them, including through illicit
           means;
                 11. Decides that the measures specified in paragraph 8 (e) of resolution 1718

                 12. Affirms that “economic resources,” as referred to in paragraph 8 (d) of
           resolution 1718 (2006), includes assets of every kind, whether tangible or
           intangible, movable or immovable, actual or potential, which potentially may be
           used to obtain funds, goods, or services, such as vessels (including maritime
           vessels);
                13. Decides that if a Member State determines that a DPRK diplomat,
           governmental representative, or other DPRK national acting in a governmental

               capacity, is working on behalf or at the direction of a designated individual or entity,
               or of an individual or entities assisting in the evasion of sanctions or violating the
               provisions of resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) or
               this resolution, then the Member State shall expel the individual from its territory
               for the purpose of repatriation to the DPRK consistent with applicable national and
               international law, provided that nothing in this paragraph shall impede the transit of
               representatives of the Government of the DPRK to the United Nations Headquarters
               or other UN facilities to conduct United Nations business, and decides that the
               provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to a particular individual if:
               a) the presence of the individual is required for fulfil lment of a judicial process,
               b) the presence of the individual is required exclusively for medical, safety or other
               humanitarian purposes, or c) the Committee has determined on a case -by-case basis
               that the expulsion of the individual would be contrary to the objectives of
               resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) and this resolution;
                     14. Decides that, if a Member State determines that an individual who is not
               a national of that State is working on behalf of or at the direction of a designated
               individual or entity or assisting the evasion of sanctions or violating the provisions
               of resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) or this
               resolution, then Member States shall expel the individual from their territories for
               the purpose of repatriation to the individual’s state of natio nality, consistent with
               applicable national and international law, unless the presence of the individual is
               required for fulfillment of a judicial process or exclusively for medical, safety or
               other humanitarian purposes, or the Committee has determined on a case-by-case
               basis that the expulsion of the individual would be contrary to the objectives of
               resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) or this resolution,
               provided that nothing in this paragraph shall impede the transit of represe ntatives of
               the Government of the DPRK to the United Nations Headquarters or other
               UN facilities to conduct United Nations business;
                      15. Underscores that, as a consequence of implementing the obligations
               imposed in paragraph 8 (d) of resolution 1718 (2006) and paragraphs 8 and 11 of
               resolution 2094 (2013), all Member States shall close the representative offices of
               designated entities and prohibit such entities, as well as individuals or entities acting
               for or on their behalf, directly or indirectly, from participating in joint ventures or
               any other business arrangements, and underscores that if a representative of such an
               office is a DPRK national, then States are required to expel the individual from their
               territories for the purpose of repatriation to the DPRK consistent with applicable
               national and international law, pursuant to and consistent with paragraph 10 of
               resolution 2094 (2013);
                     16. Notes that the DPRK frequently uses front companies, shell companies,
               joint ventures and complex, opaque ownership structures for the purpose of
               violating measures imposed in relevant Security Council resolutions, and, in this
               regard, directs the Committee, with the support of the Panel, to identify individuals
               and entities engaging in such practices and, if approp riate, designate them to be
               subject to the measures imposed in resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087
               (2013), 2094 (2013) and this resolution;
                     17. Decides that all Member States shall prevent specialized teaching or
               training of DPRK nationals within their territories or by their nationals of
               disciplines which could contribute to the DPRK’s proliferation sensitive nuclear

                                                                                                 S/RES/2270 (2016)

           teaching or training in advanced physics, advanced computer simulation and related
           computer sciences, geospatial navigation, nuclear engineering, aerospace
           engineering, aeronautical engineering and related disciplines;
                 18. Decides that all States shall inspect the cargo within or transiting through
           their territory, including in their airports, seaports and free trade zones, that has
           originated in the DPRK, or that is destined for the DPRK, or has been brokered or
           facilitated by the DPRK or its nationals, or by individuals or entities acting on their
           behalf or at their direction, or entities owned or controlled by them, or by
           designated individuals or entities, or that is being transported on DPRK flagged
           aircraft or maritime vessels, for the purposes of ensuring that no items are
           transferred in violation of resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094
           (2013) and this resolution, and calls upon States to implement such inspections in a
           manner that minimizes the impact on the transfer of cargo that the State determines
           is for humanitarian purposes;
                 19. Decides that Member States shall prohibit their nationals and those in
           their territories from leasing or chartering their flagged vessels or aircraft or
           providing crew services to the DPRK, and decides that this prohibition shall also
           apply with respect to any designated individuals or entities, any other DPRK
           entities, any other individuals or entities whom the State determines to have assisted
           in the evasion of sanctions or in violating the provisions of resolutions 1718 (2006),
           1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) or this resolution, any individuals or entities
           acting on behalf or at the direction of any of the aforementioned, and any entities
           owned or controlled by any of the aforementioned, calls upon Member States to de
           register any vessel that is owned, operated or crewed by the DPRK, further calls
           upon Member States not to register any such vessel that is de -registered by another
           Member State pursuant to this paragraph, and decides that this provision shall not
           apply with respect to such leasing, chartering or provision of crew services notified
           to the Committee in advance on a case-by-case basis accompanied by:
           a) information demonstrating that such activities are exclusively for l ivelihood
           purposes which will not be used by DPRK individuals or entities to generate
           revenue, and b) information on measures taken to prevent such activities from
           contributing to violations of the aforementioned resolutions;
                 20. Decides that all States shall prohibit their nationals, persons subject to
           their jurisdiction and entities incorporated in their territory or subject to their
           jurisdiction from registering vessels in the DPRK, obtaining authorization for a
           vessel to use the DPRK flag, and from owning, leasing, operating, providing any
           vessel classification, certification or associated service, or insuring any vessel
           flagged by the DPRK, and decides that this measure shall not apply to activities
           notified in advance by the Committee on a case-by-case basis, following provision
           to the Committee of detailed information on the activities, including the names of
           individuals and entities involved in them, information demonstrating that such
           activities are exclusively for livelihood purposes which will not be used by DPRK
           individuals or entities to generate revenue and on measures taken to prevent such
           activities from contributing to violations of resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009),
           2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) or this resolution;
                21. Decides that all States shall deny permission to any aircraft to take off
           from, land in or overfly, unless under the condition of landing for inspection, their
