About these sources

Australian Sanctions Consolidated ListSanctions list

Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade administrative Consolidated List — UN and Australian autonomous sanctions entries, including individuals, entities and sanctioned vessels, with measure indicators and designation instruments. The underlying instruments and law control, and a consolidated list can lag an amendment.

What a match means: A match is an entry on Australia's official operational list. Escalate it as a genuine sanctions signal, then check the published measure flags and cited controlling instrument before deciding the legal restriction.

EU Consolidated Financial Sanctions ListSanctions list

The EU's Financial Sanctions Files (FSF) — the European Commission's administrative consolidated feed of persons, groups and entities subject to EU asset-freeze measures under Council CFSP decisions and implementing Regulations. The underlying legal acts control and a consolidated feed can lag an amendment.

What a match means: A match is an entry in the Commission's official operational feed. Escalate it as a genuine EU sanctions signal, then verify the cited programme and controlling Council Regulation before deciding the exact legal restriction.

Registre national des gelsSanctions list

France's Registre national des gels, published by the Direction générale du Trésor — the administrative national operational register combining EU, UN-implemented and French domestic asset-freeze measures while retaining each legal basis. The cited legal acts control and the consolidated register can lag an amendment.

What a match means: A match is an entry in France's official asset-freeze register. Preserve its French/EU/UN provenance and escalate it, then review each attached legal basis and effective date before deciding the controlling obligation.

OFAC Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) ListSanctions list

The US Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List — the United States' primary sanctions list, naming persons, companies, vessels and aircraft whose property is blocked under US sanctions authorities (IEEPA, TWEA, the Kingpin Act, Global Magnitsky, and program-specific executive orders).

What a match means: A match is a direct US sanctions hit — the named party is designated and, absent a license, US persons are generally barred from dealing with them; escalate immediately rather than clearing the alert yourself.
