What these numbers mean

Counts describe this source’s current available records, before any name search. Records can overlap within and across lists. They are not counts of unique entities.

Publicly browsable records are the portion available in the public directory. A record’s presence does not by itself establish an active sanction.

Organizations include companies and other bodies. Other / unspecified means the source record has no more specific supported type.

What this source covers

The SECO XML file includes listed parties and the history of changes to their records. SanctionsKit checks when a removal from the list takes effect before deciding which records are active. It keeps the source history so those changes can be traced.

Keep the originating list with each entry

SECO search results cannot confirm who owns or controls a company. Vessel names may be kept. An IMO number found only in narrative text is not treated as a verified identifier in a dedicated field. Check the original legal measures when you assess a result.

  • Identify the component list or action type.
  • Compare identity evidence without joining by name alone.
  • Read the applicable dates and original authority.

Questions about Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes

What does a match in the SECO sanctions search tell me?

SECO's search shows directly listed people, companies and organizations under Swiss sanctions. It does not tell you whether another business is owned or controlled by a listed party. Start with the name and compare the available identifying facts. A similar name alone does not establish identity. Then read the relevant sanctions program and Swiss ordinance to understand the measure. SECO also offers consolidated XML data and an Excel download through its search tool. Those formats help you access the source, but they do not resolve the legal scope or company relationships. Keep those separate questions visible in your review. Read the publisher’s Swiss SECO Sanctions List guidance.

Who publishes Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes?

The catalog identifies State Secretariat for Economic Affairs as the publisher in Switzerland. Open the publisher reference. SanctionsKit’s source profile is separate from that publisher’s original records and notices.

Can I select Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes for screening?

The current source snapshot marks Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes as available for screening. Select its source ID, ch-seco, when your policy requires it. Check availability again when you run a request. This status does not by itself grant public browsing or export rights.

Can I browse current Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes records here?

Current public records from Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes can be browsed here. The current source contains 8,667 records. This counts source records, not distinct people, companies or assets. An empty name search is not a completed screening check.

May I reuse or export Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes records?

Access to Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes does not grant every right to copy, export or redistribute it. Read the source reuse terms and the attribution notice for the version you use. A public record page or working screening integration is not an export permission. Follow the conditions that apply to your intended use.
