What this helps your team do

Connect the check to the evidence and the next decision.

Choose SDN and non-SDN coverage deliberately

Select the supported OFAC sources required for the check. Preserve the underlying list identity because non-SDN restrictions and SDN blocking designations do not all have the same implications.

Investigate each possible identity match

Inspect the source record and compare reliable subject information. Keep missing facts unknown and record the evidence that supports a confirmed, dismissed, or unresolved candidate.

Keep the decision attached to its source

Retain the screening reference, list version, notes, and required approvals. Record the identity conclusion separately from the assessment of the applicable restriction and proposed activity.

A practical use case

Identify the subject and coverage

OFAC publishes the official lists. SanctionsKit provides a commercial screening and review workflow using selected supported coverage; it is not an OFAC endorsement, an official match determination, or a guarantee that an activity is permitted.

  1. 01

    Identify the subject and coverage

    Use the legal person or organization name and known identifiers. Choose the required OFAC sources rather than relying on an undefined OFAC-list label.

  2. 02

    Screen and follow the exception path

    Use an individual check, supported batch, or API integration. Route potential matches and incomplete checks into their separate operational paths.

  3. 03

    Retain the review and selected monitoring

    Record the reason for each identity decision and the authorized business disposition. Monitor selected continuing subjects with defined scope and ownership.

OFAC screening software: practical questions.

Does OFAC screening guarantee compliance?

No. A list comparison cannot determine every applicable restriction, ownership issue, authorization, or reporting duty. Your broader procedures and legal assessment remain necessary.

Is a similar name a confirmed OFAC match?

No. Review the full source record and reliable identifying information. A similarity score ranks candidates rather than establishing identity.

Can an unlisted company still raise OFAC ownership issues?

Yes. OFAC’s 50 Percent Rule can affect an entity not named on the SDN List. SanctionsKit does not collect ownership evidence or calculate ownership chains.

Is this an official OFAC search service?

No. OFAC publishes its own official data and search resources. SanctionsKit is a separate commercial screening and review service; source references remain available for verification.
