Sanctions List Service
OFAC has released an early version of its new Sanctions List Service (SLS) application. In the near future, OFAC will transition to SLS as the primary method for delivering sanctions list files and data to the public. In addition to providing sanctions list information in OFAC’s standard formats, SLS will also allow users to retrieve custom list data in a number of different layouts. This retrieval can be done either via the SLS user interface or through the use of an application programming interface (API).

In order to make it easier to comply with OFAC's sanctions regulations, the office is now offering all of its non-SDN sanctions lists in a consolidated set of data files "the Consolidated Sanctions List". These consolidated files comply with all OFAC's existing data standards. In the future, if OFAC creates a new non-SDN style list, the office will add the new data associated with that list to these consolidated data files if appropriate. While the consolidated sanctions list data files are not part of OFAC's list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons "the SDN List," the records in these consolidated files may also appear on the SDN List.
