Screening against 8 sanctions lists...
OFAC sanctions prohibitions apply to every transaction a US dealership does, with no dollar threshold. A single sale to an SDN-listed buyer can trigger significant civil penalties, whatever the price. OFACScreen makes screening every deal simple and affordable.
Use Cases
How Auto Dealers Use OFACScreen
Vehicle Sales
Screen every buyer at the point of sale, from cash deals to trade-ins, because OFAC prohibitions have no minimum transaction size.
F&I Department
Integrate OFAC screening into your finance and insurance workflow for every financed vehicle purchase.
Dealership Groups
Manage OFAC screening across multiple rooftops with team management and centralized audit logs.
Audit Documentation
Print or export screening results for each deal file to demonstrate compliance during audits.
The Requirement
What OFAC Asks of Auto Dealers
No dollar threshold, and no knowledge requirement
Sell a vehicle to a sanctioned party and you can face penalties whether or not you knew the buyer was listed. OFAC prohibitions do not begin at a transaction size.
Screen before the deal closes, not after
The check belongs before you finalize the purchase, and the result belongs in the deal jacket. A screen run after delivery documents the violation rather than preventing it.
Screening only the cash deals is the common mistake
Cash carries the higher money-laundering risk, so it gets the attention. Sanctions risk does not follow the payment method, and financed deals and trade-ins are in scope too.
