OFAC is moving soon!

We will be moving all OFAC content to a brand new website. OFAC's Sanctions List Search and sanctions list data will remain at the current URLs.

Frequently Asked Questions

59. Do I need a registration number or license to donate goods?

Answer

Most OFAC sanctions programs provide exemptions to their prohibitions for certain donated goods, such as articles to relieve human suffering. This is not the case for all programs, however. You should refer to the legal section of OFAC's website for the regulations applicable to the specific target or target country of your donation.
