Full counting statistics for electron transport is generalized to interacting electron systems with non-Markovian dynamics. In deriving a general expression for the cumulant generating function, we develop a method to properly account for the non-Markovian nature of the system. We compare with both the limits of Markovian dynamics and with transport through non-interacting systems, and discuss under which circumstances non-Markovian effects appear in the transport properties. As specific examples, we consider transport through a single-level quantum dot in second order of the tunnel coupling strength.
