28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.1 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.1 Purpose. DOJ       (a) This part specifies the registration requirements of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA), 34 U.S.C. 20901 et seq., and the scope of those requirements' application. The Attorney General has the authority to specify the requirements of SORNA and their applicability as provided in this part pursuant to provisions of SORNA, including 34 U.S.C. 20912(b), 20913(d), and 20914(a)(8), (c). (b) This part does not preempt or limit any obligations of or requirements relating to sex offenders under other Federal laws, rules, or policies, or under the laws, rules, or policies of registration jurisdictions or other entities. States and other governmental entities may prescribe registration requirements and other requirements, with which sex offenders must comply, that are more extensive or stringent than those prescribed by SORNA.
28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.2 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.2 Definitions. DOJ       All terms used in this part have the same meaning as in SORNA.
28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.3 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.3 Applicability of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act. DOJ       The requirements of SORNA apply to all sex offenders. All sex offenders must comply with all requirements of that Act, regardless of when the conviction of the offense for which registration is required occurred (including if the conviction occurred before the enactment of that Act), regardless of whether a jurisdiction in which registration is required has substantially implemented that Act's requirements or has implemented any particular requirement of that Act, and regardless of whether any particular requirement or class of sex offenders is mentioned in examples in this regulation or in other regulations or guidelines issued by the Attorney General. Example 1 to § 72.3. A sex offender is federally convicted of aggravated sexual abuse under 18 U.S.C. 2241 in 1990 and is released following imprisonment in 2009. The sex offender is subject to the requirements of SORNA and could be held criminally liable under 18 U.S.C. 2250 for failing to register or keep the registration current in any jurisdiction in which the sex offender resides, is an employee, or is a student. Example 2 to § 72.3. A sex offender is convicted by a state jurisdiction in 1997 for molesting a child and is released following imprisonment in 2000. The sex offender initially registers as required but relocates to another state in 2009 and fails to register in the new state of residence. The sex offender has violated the requirement under SORNA to register in any jurisdiction in which he resides, and could be held criminally liable under 18 U.S.C. 2250 for the violation because he traveled in interstate commerce.
28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.4 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.4 Where sex offenders must register. DOJ       A sex offender must register, and keep the registration current, in each jurisdiction in which the offender resides, is an employee, or is a student. For initial registration purposes only, a sex offender must also register in the jurisdiction in which convicted if that jurisdiction is different from the jurisdiction of residence.
28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.5 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.5 How long sex offenders must register. DOJ       (a) Duration. A sex offender has a continuing obligation to register and keep the registration current (except when the sex offender is in custody or civilly committed) for the following periods of time: (1) 15 years, if the offender is a tier I sex offender; (2) 25 years, if the offender is a tier II sex offender; and (3) The life of the offender, if the offender is a tier III sex offender. (b) Commencement. The registration period begins to run: (1) When a sex offender is released from imprisonment following conviction for the offense giving rise to the registration requirement, including in cases in which the term of imprisonment is based wholly or in part on the sex offender's conviction for another offense; or (2) If the sex offender is not sentenced to imprisonment, when the sex offender is sentenced for the offense giving rise to the registration requirement. (c) Reduction. If a tier I sex offender has maintained for 10 years a clean record, as described in 34 U.S.C. 20915(b)(1), the period for which the sex offender must register and keep the registration current under paragraph (a) of this section is reduced by 5 years. If a tier III sex offender required to register on the basis of a juvenile delinquency adjudication has maintained a clean record, as described in 34 U.S.C. 20915(b)(1), for 25 years, the period for which the sex offender must register and keep the registration current under paragraph (a) of this section is reduced to the period for which the clean record has been maintained.
28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.6 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.6 Information sex offenders must provide. DOJ       Sex offenders must provide the following information for inclusion in the sex offender registries of the jurisdictions in which they are required to register: (a) Name, date of birth, and Social Security number. (1) The name of the sex offender, including any alias used by the sex offender. (2) The sex offender's date of birth and any date that the sex offender uses as his purported date of birth.

(2) Information about any place in which the sex offender is staying when away from his residence for seven or more days, including the identity of the place and the period of time the sex offender is staying there. (3) The name and address of any place where the sex offender is or will be an employee or, if the sex offender is or will be employed but with no fixed place of employment, other information describing where the sex offender works or will work with whatever definiteness is possible under the circumstances. (4) The name and address of any place where the sex offender is a student or will be a student. (d) International travel.

28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.7 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.7 How sex offenders must register and keep the registration current. DOJ       (a) Initial registration —(1) In general. Except as provided in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, a sex offender must register before release from imprisonment following conviction for the offense giving rise to the registration requirement, or, if the sex offender is not sentenced to imprisonment, within three business days after being sentenced for that offense. (2) Special rules for certain cases. The following special requirements apply: (i) Federal and military offenders. A sex offender who is released from Federal or military custody, or who is convicted for a Federal or military sex offense but not sentenced to imprisonment, must register within three business days of entering or remaining in a jurisdiction to reside following the release or sentencing. (ii) Foreign convictions. A sex offender required to register on the basis of a conviction in a foreign country must register within three business days of entering any jurisdiction in the United States to reside, work, or attend school. (b) Periodic in-person verification. A sex offender must appear in person, allow the jurisdiction to take a current photograph, and verify the information in each registry in which the offender is required to register. In carrying out the required verification of information in each registry, the sex offender must correct any information that has changed or is otherwise inaccurate and must report any new registration information. A sex offender must appear in person for these purposes not less frequently than— (1) Each year, if the offender is a tier I sex offender; (2) Every six months, if the offender is a tier II sex offender; and (3) Every three months, if the offender is a tier III sex offender. (c) Reporting of initiation and changes concerning name, residence, employment, and school attendance. A sex offender who enters a jurisdiction to reside, or who resides in a jurisdiction and changes his name or his place of residence in the jurisdiction, must appear in person in that jurisdiction and regis…
28:28:2.0.1.1.25.0.1.8 28 Judicial Administration I   72 PART 72—SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION AND NOTIFICATION       § 72.8 Liability for violations. DOJ       (a) Criminal liability —(1) Offense. (i) A sex offender may be liable to criminal penalties under 18 U.S.C. 2250(a) if the sex offender— (A) Is required to register under SORNA; (B)( 1 ) Is a sex offender as defined for the purposes of SORNA by reason of a conviction under Federal law (including the Uniform Code of Military Justice), the law of the District of Columbia, Indian tribal law, or the law of any territory or possession of the United States; or ( 2 ) Travels in interstate or foreign commerce, or enters or leaves, or resides in, Indian country; and (C) Knowingly fails to register or update a registration as required by SORNA. (ii) A sex offender may be liable to criminal penalties under 18 U.S.C. 2250(b) if the sex offender— (A) Is required to register under SORNA; (B) Knowingly fails to provide information required by SORNA relating to intended travel in foreign commerce; and (C) Engages or attempts to engage in the intended travel in foreign commerce. (iii) As a condition of liability under 18 U.S.C. 2250(a)-(b) for failing to comply with a requirement of SORNA, a sex offender must have been aware of the requirement he is charged with violating, but need not have been aware that the requirement is imposed by SORNA. (2) Defense. A sex offender may have an affirmative defense to liability, as provided in 18 U.S.C. 2250(c), if uncontrollable circumstances prevented the sex offender from complying with SORNA, where the sex offender did not contribute to the creation of those circumstances in reckless disregard of the requirement to comply and complied as soon as the circumstances preventing compliance ceased to exist. Example 1 to paragraph (a)(2). A sex offender changes residence from one jurisdiction to another, bringing into play SORNA's requirement to register in each jurisdiction where the sex offender resides and SORNA's requirement to appear in person and report changes of residence within three business days. See 34 U.S.C. 20913(a), (c). The sex offender attempts to comply with t…
