More than a free SDN search

The Treasury's OFAC search tool tells you if there's a match, but it doesn't give you proof, and neither does the search above once you close the tab. OFACScreen checks the SDN list plus 7 additional sanctions and denied-party watchlists in one search, and keeps a record of the check for as long as you need it.

PROCESS

How it works

1. Search

Enter a name or entity. Free instant lookup against 8 sanctions lists.

2. Review

See potential matches with confidence scores and list sources.

3. Keep it on the record

On a plan, every search is logged and saved names are re-screened daily. For one deal, a $9.99 report documents that single screening.

QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

We screen against exactly 8 lists: OFAC SDN, OFAC Non-SDN (including the Consolidated list), BIS Denied Persons (DPL), the UN Consolidated list, EU Financial Sanctions Files, UK OFSI, Canada SEMA, and Swiss SECO. Every search checks all 8.
You receive a Compliance Clearance Certificate confirming the individual or entity was screened with no matches found. This PDF document can be used for your compliance records and due diligence documentation.
Our sanctions data is refreshed automatically every day from official government sources. Each report includes a timestamp showing the exact date and time the screening was performed.
Our reports provide documented evidence that a sanctions screening was performed. While no screening tool can guarantee legal compliance on its own, our reports are used by compliance professionals, law firms, and financial institutions as part of their due diligence process.
Yes. The OFAC search is completely free and shows the highest-scoring matches on screen: names, lists, programs, and confidence scores, along with the total number of potential matches found. What it does not do is keep anything. A plan records every search from your account in an exportable audit trail and re-screens the names you save every day, from $49 a month with a 14-day trial and no card. For a single screening you just need documented once, the downloadable report with PDF compliance certificate and shareable verification link is $9.99, one-time, no account.
An OFAC SDN search checks whether a person or entity appears on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons list maintained by the US Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control. The SDN list includes individuals and companies with whom US persons are prohibited from doing business. Running an SDN list search before a transaction is a standard part of sanctions compliance.
Enter any name in the search box above to run a free OFAC compliance check. You'll see instant results showing potential matches across the SDN list and 7 additional sanctions watchlists. For a documented OFAC verification with a timestamped PDF certificate, purchase the full screening report for $9.99, no subscription, no account required. The report serves as a sanction check record for your compliance files.
Yes. Every paid screening produces a full OFAC report including match details, confidence scores, and a PDF compliance certificate with a timestamp. The screening report also comes with a permanent shareable link so you can provide OFAC verification to auditors, legal counsel, or management on demand.
