OFAC enforcement actions: every civil penalty since 2003

This page reads OFAC's own tables every day and puts 2003–present in one place: totals by year, the largest penalties, and the latest actions, each linked to its notice.

How OFAC enforcement works

OFAC enforces US sanctions through civil penalties under the statutes behind each sanctions program — the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the Trading with the Enemy Act among them. When it finds an apparent violation it can issue a penalty, agree a settlement, or record a finding of violation with no money changing hands; each outcome is published with a web notice describing the conduct, the sanctions program involved and the factors OFAC weighed. Those notices are the most practical guide to what OFAC expects of a compliance program.

Many cases share a pattern that screening addresses directly: payments or shipments that reached a sanctioned party, a sanctioned jurisdiction, or a customer whose identifiers matched a listed entry but were never checked. A sanctions screen at onboarding and before each transaction — against the SDN list, the Consolidated list and sanctioned jurisdictions — is a control those notices return to again and again.

This tracker reproduces OFAC's published tables and links to every web notice; it is not an official source, and the notice itself is what to cite. OFAC's tables carry the date, party, number of penalties and total for each action; program and violation details are in the notices.
