Identity matching — read this first. Sanctions and PEP records are aggregated from independent publishers, each of which spells names differently and publishes a different subset of identifying attributes (date of birth, nationality, place of birth, official identifiers). We aggregate records as a single individual only when date of birth or a combination of strong attributes confirms identity. Lower-confidence matches are surfaced below as Possible matches with the specific evidence — they are not silently combined. You must independently verify identity against the issuing authority's source record before any sanctions, AML, or compliance determination.

Disclaimer. This page is informational only and does not constitute legal advice or a compliance determination. Common names may match multiple individuals — verify identity (DOB, nationality, place of birth) independently before any business decision. Data sourced directly from publishers including OFAC, UN Security Council, EU, UK OFSI and 46 other national lists.
