Frequently asked questions
What lists does ShipSeeker screen against?
The U.S. Consolidated Screening List, which bundles the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) and sectoral-sanctions lists, the BIS Entity List, Denied Persons List, Unverified List and Military End User List, the State Department ITAR-debarred and nonproliferation lists, and Treasury's CMIC list — 26,127 parties in all.
Is restricted-party screening legally required?
U.S. sanctions carry strict liability — dealing with a sanctioned party can trigger penalties even without intent. Importers and exporters are expected to screen counterparties and keep a dated record as evidence of reasonable care.
Is a match a definite problem?
No. Screening is name-based, so a hit is a flag to review — confirm the identity (address, country, aliases) against the official list and consult counsel. A "clear" result is not legal advice.

Matching is name-based: a hit is a flag to review (confirm identity, aliases & address on the official source), and a clear result is not legal advice.
