FAQ's

Most frequent questions and answers realted to tin matching

What is a Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list?

The Specially Designated Nationals is a federal watch list administered by the OFAC. It includes the identities of all the entities and individuals sanctioned and blocked by the U.S. government. Those who are deemed as a threat to the U.S. national security and foreign and economic policy are blocked and listed as specially designated nationals in the SDN list.

Usually, individuals, groups, entities, and agencies that engage in drug trafficking, money laundering, terrorism financing, mass destruction material exports, and related regimes are sanctioned by the authorities, and listed in the SDN list.

How to search the SDN list?

With Compliancely, you can easily access the SDN list and search for sanctioned profiles. All you have to do is to enter the identities, such as the name, address, and other identification details to search for the profile in the SDN list in real-time.

What’s the importance of Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list?

The SDN check is a security compliance protocol that protects your business from onboarding entities and individuals that have been sanctioned and blocked by federal authorities. If you disregard these sanctions and continue to engage with the sanctioned/blocked profiles, the conduct will imply civil liabilities.

From a federal perspective, the SDN list is a security measure that protects the economic and financial ecosystem of the U.S. from targeted non-compliant influences.

How regularly are the Blocked Persons and Specially Designated Nationals lists updated?

The Treasury Department states that the SDN and Blocked Persons Lists are updated in accordance with the conclusions of the OFAC investigations with no certain timetable.

However, the current SDN and Blocked Persons Lists are updated with the most recent information and consist of data dating back to 1994.

With Compliancely, you will find real-time results to your SDN queries in accordance with the source records (OFAC).

What to do if your search returns a ‘match’?

When you’re validating the identities of a profile, it is possible to find the identities in the federal watch lists. This means that the profile poses a certain amount of risk and it is up to you to assess and conclude the severity of the risk.

The OFAC encourages businesses to validate the profiles thoroughly and abstain from entering into commercial or business arrangements with individuals and entities that are listed by the federal agency as Specially Designated Nationals or Blocked Persons.

How frequently is the SDN list updated by OFAC?

There is no certain timetable or interval for the updates. As and when the OFAC investigations are concluded, the watch lists are updated with the validated information.
