Información detallada
OFAC SDN (Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List) is the primary sanctions list maintained by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control. It contains individuals and entities that are blocked, meaning their assets are frozen and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from dealing with them. The list includes terrorists, narcotics traffickers, and those determined to be owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, targeted countries or regimes.
U.S. persons must block any property in their possession or under their control in which an SDN has an interest. SDNs are designated primarily under statutory authorities including the Trading With the Enemy Act (TWEA), International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), and the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act. Violations can result in significant civil and criminal penalties.
The SDN list is updated frequently with no predetermined schedule. For official data, visit: OFAC SDN List or search at: OFAC Sanctions Search.
