1011. My U.S. bank refused to process a requested payment related to energy despite the authorization in Russia-related General License (GL) 8C under Executive Order (E.O.) 14024.  What can I do?

Answer

The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) encourages persons to connect with their financial institution regarding the status of any payment.  In addition, persons with questions about engaging in or processing transactions related to GL 8C can contact OFAC’s Sanctions Compliance and Evaluation Division most efficiently via email at OFAC_Feedback@treasury.gov.  Sanctions Compliance and Evaluation may also be reached via phone at (800) 540-6322 or (202) 622-2490.
