Informational only. Sanctions data published direct from official feeds (OFAC, UN, EU, UK + national authorities). Always verify against the original source before any compliance, commercial, or legal decision. Report an error.
Records were merged on name + nationality alone (no shared date of birth). Common names may match multiple individuals — verify DOB and place of birth before any business decision.

Records in other sanctions lists with high name overlap that
may describe the same person.
We have not aggregated these into the record above because
date of birth, nationality, or both were not published by one or more sources.
Review each below and verify identity against the source record before treating
as the same individual.
✗ Date of birth not published by at least one source
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.
