What is a Global Sanctions
Background Check?

A global sanctions background check helps you see if an individual or entity is listed on any international sanctions lists. This ensures compliance with international regulations and helps avoid legal and financial risks associated with doing business with sanctioned parties.

There are a few different global sanctions lists:

  • United Nations Sanctions Lists
  • US Treasury Department’s OFAC List
  • European Union Sanctions Lists
  • UK Sanctions Lists
  • Other National Lists

These international sanctions screenings help you ensure compliance with international regulations, mitigate risks, and maintain ethical standards in operations.
