check_sanctions
Sanctions screening of a name, for whether a person or company is on a sanctions list — and which one. Reads OFAC SDN, the UN consolidated list, the EU Financial Sanctions File and the UK Sanctions List, and returns listed, mismatch, not_found or unknown. The answer names the lists that were consulted with each one's retrieval date (and the UK list's own report date); a list that was not consulted is named as not consulted, and unknown is the answer when we cannot tell. A near name is never reported as the same party, and a listed verdict stands even when another list was not consulted. Not advice, not a legal determination. Comes with an Ed25519-signed receipt covering the question, the verdict, the sources and the time, checkable offline against the published key at /.well-known/factstamp-issuer.json — so the check itself can be audited later by someone who was not here.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| kind | No | Optional: whether the name is a company or a person. A similar name across the person/entity line is a different party. | |
| name | Yes | The person or company name to screen, as it is published on the list or in your document. | |
| country | No | Optional country to break ties. A listed country that disagrees with the one you give is a mismatch, never a match. |
