Issued by National Credit Union Administration
On March 11, 2026, the NCUA (or `agency') published a proposed rule to solicit comments on ways to improve and update the vital records preservation program regulation and accompanying guidelines. Based on the comments received, and upon further consideration of the issues involved, the NCUA Board is publishing this final rule, mostly as proposed, to clarify the purpose of part 749, update the definitions, and remove unnecessary references to recommendations and guidance.
This is a factual description of what was issued or decided — not an assessment of it.
