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.

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.
