Although transactions with foreign entities placed on the Specially Designated Nationals (SDNs) list are typically prohibited, persons from the United States can often navigate these restrictions by obtaining an OFAC license. The specific license is granted on a case by cases basis by a submission directly to OFAC and provides permission for an entity to engage in specific transactions that would otherwise be prohibited such as banking, commercial transactions and company operations.
Effective legal representation well-versed in OFAC regulations can significantly determine whether an application is granted or denied. For that reason, Seiden Law stands out from other firms due to our team’s extensive understanding of the licensing system and U.S. foreign policy as well as our specialized strategies derived from years of experience navigating OFAC sanction regulations.
