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.

UK Sanctions List (UKSL)Sanctions list

The UK Sanctions List (UKSL), published by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office — since 28 January 2026 the single, current source for all UK sanctions designations (financial, immigration, trade and transport measures), superseding the older OFSI Consolidated List.

What a match means: A match is a current, binding UK sanctions designation — treat as a direct compliance hit and escalate immediately.

UK OFSI Consolidated List of Financial Sanctions TargetsSanctions list

The UK's former OFSI Consolidated List of Financial Sanctions Targets, maintained by HM Treasury. OFSI closed this list on 28 January 2026 — current UK sanctions designations now publish only to the FCDO UK Sanctions List (also in this catalog) — and it is retained here as a historical source.

What a match means: A match reflects a UK financial-sanctions designation recorded before the 28 Jan 2026 cutover; check whether the same party also appears on the current UK Sanctions List, and treat either appearance as a genuine UK sanctions hit, not a stale false positive.
