A restricted party is any individual, company, or organization prohibited by federal law to receive export-controlled items, information, or technology. The U.S. Departments of State, Commerce, and the Treasury, as well as other federal agencies, each maintain lists of restricted parties.
It costs nothing to find out how we can help. Each organization has it’s own unique challenges and path to achieving compliance. The first step to getting this solved is a simple phone call you can make right now.
There are several reasons why a person or company may be added to a restricted party list. For example, they may be a terrorist organization or affiliated with such an organization, they may have a history of corrupt business practices, or they may otherwise pose a threat to national security.

The Consolidated Screening List (CSL) is a list of parties for which the United States Government maintains restrictions on certain exports, reexports, or transfers of items.
There are very serious consequences for engaging in business with a company, organization, or individual that is on a restricted party list.

For this reason, you should perform a Denied Party Screening on every single business transaction that is made with an entity that you haven’t previously worked with. Fines and penalties include:
If you do come across an entity that is on a restricted party list, it is strongly advised that you contact the agency that published the list so that you can bring it to their attention that the particular entity is attempting to conduct transactions with businesses that it isn’t allowed too. If you are convicted of being in non-compliance with export rules and regulations, it can have devastating effects on your business and is something you want to avoid at all costs.
