- INSTEX is registered at Paris with an initial 3,000 Euros in the capital and a supervisory board with members from France and Germany and chaired by by Britain.
- INSTEX will support legitimate European trade with Iran, focusing initially on the sectors most essential to the Iranian population such as pharmaceutical, medical devices and agri-food goods.

- In future, INSTEX will also be opened to other countries wanting to trade with Iran.
- INSTEX to be operational requires Iran to set up a parallel structure of its own.
How would INSTEX provide protection against US Sanctions?
- INSTEX would receive payments from companies that want to trade with Iran, either by receiving waivers for oil imports or permissible trade in goods like food and medicine.
- As a result, there would be no direct transfer of funds between Iran and European companies.
- This would theoretically insulate firms from U.S. penalties.
