Watchlist Search
About Watchlist Search
Quick answer. A watchlist search only means something after you name the list. OFAC’s Sanctions List Search covers the SDN list and other OFAC lists. UN, EU, and UK lists are different publications. A PEP file is not a sanctions list.
What this site is for
Search OFAC at sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov. Record the confidence setting, the program code, and the date. OFAC says the tool is not a substitute for due diligence and will not pick the threshold for you.
A government watch list search that dumps every commercial file into one red flag hides the source. Keep OFAC, UN, EU, UK, and PEP in separate lines of the note.
What we will not pretend to be
Watchlist Search is not OFAC and does not block or clear a transaction.
