Official lists and a direct route to the primary source

How to use it

From a match to legal qualification

  1. 01

    Find the person or product

    Check scripts, transliterations, former names, registration identifiers and the product code.

  2. 02

    Test ownership and control

    Restrictions may extend to an unlisted entity through ownership, control or acting on behalf of a listed person.

  3. 03

    Identify applicable law

    Consider currency, banks, nationality and location, origin, route and all intermediaries.

  4. 04

    Read the prohibition and exceptions

    The measure label is insufficient: check the current act, annex, licence, exception and official guidance.

  5. 05

    Document the decision

    Retain sources, screening date, ownership chart, classification and the rationale for approval or rejection.

Ownership & control

An unlisted company may still be subject to restrictions

United States

50% or more in aggregate

OFAC treats an unlisted entity as blocked where one or more blocked persons own 50% or more in the aggregate, directly or indirectly. Control without that ownership does not automatically block it under the 50 Percent Rule, but calls for caution.

Official guidance ↗

European Union

Ownership and effective control

Direct and indirect interests, majority interests, corporate rights and decisive influence must be assessed under the applicable regulation and current Commission guidance.

Official guidance ↗

United Kingdom

More than 50% or control

The tests cover more than 50% of shares or votes, board appointment or removal rights, and the ability to ensure that the entity's affairs follow the designated person's wishes.

Official guidance ↗

Canada

50% or more or control

The criteria cover 50% or more of shares, interests or votes, power over board composition or powers, and the ability to direct the entity's activities.

Trade controls

A customs code starts the analysis; it does not finish it

The same code may appear in several sanctions annexes subject to value, origin, use, technical specification and end-use conditions. Technology also requires export-control classification, dual-use parameters and re-export analysis.
