Searching sanctions list entries

  2. Specify search criteria for any of these columns:
    List Name
    Specify the name of the sanctions list.
    List Type
    This field shows the entity that provides the data from which you want to run an inquiry.
    Entry ID

    The Entry ID is an internally assigned ID of the entry. This is maintained for all versions of the entry.

    Example: If you are looking for the ID of an entry that has been updated several times, you can find one entry with a PROCESSED status and several outdated versions with the OUTDATED status.

    Status
    This field shows the status of the sanctions list entry:
    • NEW: An entry that was newly created.
    • PROCESSED: An entry that is currently part of a sanctions list.
    • OUTDATED: If an entry is updated through an update or manually, the previous content of this entry is stored as a new entry with the status OUTDATED.
      Note: Changes in black lists and white lists and automatic updates of sanctions lists do not generate an OUTDATED status.
    • DELETED: If an entry is deleted through an automatic update or manually by the user, the entry is set to DELETED status.
    External ID

    The External ID is an ID that is used within the sanctions list to identify an entry.

    Example: If there is an entry with the External ID 7262 in the Compliance Monitor, then you will find relevant information about the 7262 entry in the source file of the EU. This ID is used as part of the update process. It is used to determine whether there is already a sanctions list entry with the ID that is specified in the source file. Additionally, it is used to examine whether this existing record must be updated.

    The USCL and the METI EUL sanctions lists are exceptions. They do not contain such IDs. Instead, a checksum is generated from the entry in the source file and used as External ID.
