Notice

Summary

The U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) just added new people to its blacklist, meaning their money and property in the U.S. are frozen. Americans can’t do business with these folks anymore, starting November 6, 2025. This move aims to stop bad actors from using the U.S. financial system and could impact any money tied to them.

Assets of Designated Persons Frozen

On November 6, 2025, the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) added one or more people to the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List. All property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction of those listed persons are blocked, meaning those funds and assets in the U.S. are frozen.

U.S. Persons Barred From Transactions

Beginning with the November 6, 2025 action, U.S. persons are generally prohibited from engaging in transactions with the individuals added to the SDN List. That prohibition means Americans and U.S.-based businesses cannot legally do business with those listed people.
