Know Your Sanctions Lists - Foreign Sanctions Evaders List

This is the seventh post in a series of twelve covering the lists that make up the U.S. Government's Consolidated Screening ListECScreening includes access to the Consolidated Screening List as well as other sanctions lists and crucial value-adding features such as Recurring Searches, Search History, and Country Alerts.

The Foreign Sanctions Evaders List

The Foreign Sanctions Evaders List (FSE List) is administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control.  It identifies foreign individuals and entities involved in violations of U.S. sanctions on Iran and Syria.  The FSE List is not included within the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List, but the lists may overlap.

The current FSE List is relatively short, with only eight parties as of the March 17, 2020 update, and is included within our data sources.

U.S. persons are generally prohibited from direct or indirect transactions involving individuals or entities on the FSE List without authorization by OFAC.  There are limited exceptions, such as some travel-related transactions exempt from regulation under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.
