Save the exclusion register.

Citation-anchored sanctions list with the exception register entry per hit. Useful for the legal team's pre-contract screen and the C-suite exception review.

Why a buyer or legal team runs it

The mandatory pre-contract screen.

Multi-list coverage.

OFAC SDN, EU restrictive measures, UN sanctions, and FDA Import Alert DWPE lists in one screen. Three sanctions regimes plus the FDA's border-level mechanism.

Corporate-parent resolution.

A sanction against a subsidiary blocks the corporate parent unless explicitly carved out. The screen resolves each supplier to its corporate parent so subsidiary risk surfaces in the parent's view.

Listing and delisting flow.

New listings appear within days of publication; delistings flip the chip to inactive on the next refresh. The screen is live, not snapshot-based.

Exception register.

C-suite exceptions documented per hit. Useful for legal-team audit trail and procurement defensibility.

Four of sixty resolved suppliers carry an active sanctions or DWPE listing. All four are on FDA Import Alert 66-40 (drug GMP failure detention); none are on OFAC SDN or EU restrictive measures. The 66-40 hits are operational rather than geopolitical sanctions, but the contract effect is the same: products are detained at the US border without physical examination. Recommend immediate exclusion for the four hits and C-suite exception review for any of the remaining 56 suppliers in the watch-tier cohort.

FAQ

Frequently asked

Which sanctions lists are covered?+

OFAC SDN (US Treasury), EU restrictive measures (Council Regulation), UN sanctions (Security Council), and FDA Import Alert detention orders (66-40, 66-41, other). The catalog includes the corporate-parent resolution so a subsidiary hit surfaces under the parent's view.

Why does FDA Import Alert appear in a sanctions screen?+

DWPE is operationally equivalent to a sanction at the US border. Products are detained without physical examination; the contract effect is the same as a sanctions block for any supplier exporting into the US. Procurement and legal teams treat the listings together.

How does corporate-parent resolution work?+

Each supplier is resolved to its corporate-parent entity via the legal-entities table. A sanction against a subsidiary surfaces in the parent's screen unless explicit carve-outs apply. The catalog row carries both the cited entity and the resolved parent.

How fresh is the data?+

Sanctions lists refresh weekly. OFAC SDN publishes near-real-time; the catalog pulls each refresh and surfaces new listings within days. FDA Import Alerts publish weekly. Each row carries the listing date and the delisting date once removed.

What about denied-party screening?+

Denied-party lists (BIS Entity List, OFAC FSE, EU Dual-Use) are tracked in the same screening view. The catalog includes the underlying mechanism so the legal team can match the right contract clause to the hit.

Can the screen run pre-contract?+

Yes. The screen is intended as the mandatory pre-contract gate. Any supplier with an active hit should require C-suite exception or be blocked. The exception register is the audit-trail surface for documented exceptions.
