Abstract
The prolonged and continuous imposition of sanctions against Iran over many years has caused extensive harm to numerous natural and legal persons. In many instances, these sanctions, either in their adoption or in their effects, have been accompanied by violations of international law and are therefore devoid of legitimacy and inconsistent with international legal standards. Where the incompatibility of sanctions with international obligations is established and their attribution to a sanctioning state or international organization is demonstrated, the international responsibility of the sanctioning entities arises.

In order to facilitate access to justice for victims of sanctions and to enable the possibility of reparation, it is essential to identify the competent judicial at both national and international levels and to clarify the applicable procedural frameworks. Accordingly, this research identifies the relevant judicial bodies and examines the jurisdictional bases, procedural mechanisms, parties to the proceedings, and other formal and substantive requirements governing sanctions-related claims. The ultimate objective is to facilitate effective remedies for victims of sanctions and to strengthen compliance with fundamental principles of international law.
