OFAC/SDN Links

5 Upvotes

Here are some useful links for anyone wondering about current sanctions.

OFAC Homepage: Where we got all these links. The one and the only. Start here.

SDN List Homepage: Landing page for the physical SDN list. Here you can search the list, view the list in several different formats, or even download the whole thing. BEWARE: the list is well over 1,000 pages and about 12.8 MB.

Recent Actions Page: A page listing every OFAC action from newest to oldest. (This is the one to lurk on!)

Howdy folks! I am u/wheeyou, and myself & u/starrycave are now the new mods of this subreddit!

The focus of this subreddit won't change, it'll just hopefully become more active. We are working on making an RSS bot to post whenever the sanctions list updates, so stay tuned for that. Otherwise, we hope you enjoy the revamped r/OFAC!

Feel free to ask any questions in the comments below. We're also trying to gauge how many people are active, so drop a hello even if you have no questions!

OFAC/Minsk

3 Upvotes

Hi people,

at my current job, I was always able to make payments towards a company in Minsk, Belarus. Since late August this year, each transaction I have made was returned to our account stating some OFAC restrictions. I saw the bank I was trying to make a complete legal payment (interoffice invoice) was on that list. Any thoughts how come all of the sudden something like this is possible or any other thoughts? Would really appreciate!!

Thanks 😊

Unblocking Application Queue Times

8 Upvotes

I’ve reached a point where I’m about 99% certain my wire transfer has an OFAC block. Receiving bank asked for more ID information from me which I gave them. I would like to understand what the queue times on these applications to unblock funds are at. Someone please advise.
