U.S. Persons Barred From Deals
If you are a U.S. person (an individual or a U.S. company), you are generally prohibited from engaging in transactions with the person(s) added to OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List. That prohibition began on December 31, 2024 and means you must not do business with those listed individuals or entities.

OFAC states the SDN List and more information are available on OFAC's website at https://ofac.treasury.gov. You (individuals and businesses) can check that list to see who is blocked and avoid prohibited transactions.
