`sanctions_screen`

Pack: sanctions-screening · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/sanctions-screening/mcp

Screen a person, company, vessel, or aircraft name against the US restricted-party lists — OFAC SDN sanctions, Sectoral Sanctions (SSI), Chinese Military-Industrial Complex (CMIC), BIS Entity List / Denied Persons / Military End User, State ITAR Debarred, and the DHS UFLPA Entity List for Xinjiang forced-labor import bans (~26k entries, synced daily). Fuzzy name matching with a 0-1 relevance score, matched aliases, programs, addresses, and which list each hit is on. Use for KYB / KYC / AML / export-control checks, and to check whether a supplier is subject to the forced-labor import ban before importing. Returns an empty matches array when the name is clear. Handles CYRILLIC names — Russian, Ukrainian, Serbian: the lists are held in Latin script, so a Cyrillic name is romanised into a small candidate set (both conventions: г as g or h, и as i or y, я as ya or ia) and every form is screened, with matched_form on each hit naming the spelling that produced it. So “Сбербанк” returns the same matches as “Sberbank”. A name in a script we do NOT romanise (Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, Han, Japanese, Korean, Devanagari, Thai) still cannot be compared, and is refused with clear:null / screened:false rather than reported clear — pass the Latin transliteration used on the list.
