How this service works
Fuzzy-screen a person, company, vessel or aircraft name against the US Treasury OFAC SDN list including aliases (live list, refreshed every 6 h): matched entries with score, type, sanctions programs and remarks, plus the closest near-miss score. Screening aid for payment, onboarding, KYC/KYB and trade agents.
Output
Returns a list of matched SDN entries with fuzzy similarity scores, entity type (individual, entity, vessel, aircraft), associated sanctions programs, aliases, and remarks. Also includes the closest near-miss score for entries that didn't meet the minimum threshold, helping calibrate screening sensitivity.
Example use cases
Payment counterparty screening
“Before we send this wire, can you check if 'Viktor Medvedev' appears on the OFAC sanctions list as an individual, using a minimum match score of 88?”
New customer KYB onboarding check
“We're onboarding a new business called 'Pacific Bridge Holdings Ltd' — can you run it through the OFAC SDN list as a company entity to make sure it's not sanctioned?”
Vessel trade compliance check
“We're about to charter a ship called 'Arctic Pioneer' — can you screen it as a vessel against the OFAC sanctions list with a minimum score of 90 to check for any sanctions hits?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://api.facts402.com/sanctions?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, fuzzy-matched OFAC SDN screening with alias coverage, configurable similarity thresholds, and entity-type filtering — particularly for payment pre-screening, KYC/KYB onboarding workflows, and trade compliance checks where the OFAC list is refreshed every 6 hours and you need a cost-effective per-call pricing model.
Side effects
- Name shorter than 3 characters returns a validation error
- min_score outside 70-100 range is rejected
- Network or upstream OFAC list fetch failure may return a 503
- Ambiguous or very common names may return many low-confidence matches requiring manual review
- Non-Latin script names may have lower fuzzy match accuracy
