OFACScreen Sanctions Screening missed one check this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

screen
screen_address
Screen a street address against the addresses recorded on 14 sanctions and export-control lists: OFAC SDN, OFAC Non-SDN, EU Financial Sanctions, UN Security Council, UK Sanctions List, Canada SEMA, Swiss SECO, Australia DFAT, BIS Denied Persons, BIS Entity List, BIS Unverified List, BIS Military End-User, ITAR Debarred and State Nonproliferation. Returns the number of listed parties whose recorded address resembles it and the ten highest scoring, each with matched_address (the listed address it matched on), its score, list and program, plus jurisdiction_flags: an embargoed or high-risk country or region the address points to. A jurisdiction flag says where, not who: it is not a sanctions match and never counts as one. The lists record addresses for only some of the parties on them, so no match clears no one at the address: screen their names with screen_entity too. The address must name a street or a building, e.g. "Tverskaya 7, Moscow"; a city or a country alone is refused. Free, no account, 25 screenings a day from each internet address, shared by screen_entity and screen_address; in ChatGPT, each user has their own 25. A screening is not recorded and produces no document: its report_url opens the same search on ofacscreen.com, where a timestamped PDF record of it can be bought. The price is in report_price. Calling this tool is free. Searched only when named in lists: UAE Local Terrorist List, UFLPA Entity List, FBI Most Wanted, FinCEN Special Measures, France Registre des gels, Israel NBCTF crypto wallets, Japan MOF, Mexico SAT 69-B, Poland MSWiA.
screen_entity
Screen a person or company name against 14 sanctions and export-control lists: OFAC SDN, OFAC Non-SDN, EU Financial Sanctions, UN Security Council, UK Sanctions List, Canada SEMA, Swiss SECO, Australia DFAT, BIS Denied Persons, BIS Entity List, BIS Unverified List, BIS Military End-User, ITAR Debarred and State Nonproliferation. Fuzzy name matching, so transliterations and spelling variants still surface. Returns the number of potential matches and the ten highest scoring, each with its score, list, program, aliases and addresses. A score is name similarity, not a finding that a match is the same party: confirm a date of birth, an address or an ID document before acting on it. Free, no account, 25 screenings a day from each internet address, shared by screen_entity and screen_address; in ChatGPT, each user has their own 25. A screening is not recorded and produces no document: its report_url opens the same search on ofacscreen.com, where a timestamped PDF record of it can be bought. The price is in report_price.

fetch
fetch
One listed entry, by the id a search result gave: its name, list, program, entry type, up to 5 aliases and 3 locations, and when the list was last updated. Free, no account, 200 lookups a day from each internet address.
sanctions
list_sanctions_sources
Every list OFACScreen screens against, each with its code (the value the lists argument of screen_entity and screen_address takes), its name and issuing authority, whether it is core (searched when a screening names no lists), when it was last updated and how many entries it holds. Calling this tool is free.
search
search
Search the 14 sanctions and export-control lists for a person or company name. Returns up to 10 listed entries, closest match first, each with an id for fetch and a link to cite. A result is name similarity, not a finding that it is the same party, and an empty result does not clear the name. Free, no account, 100 searches a day from each internet address.

OFACScreen Sanctions Screening — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can OFACScreen Sanctions Screening do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: fetch, list_sanctions_sources, screen_address, screen_entity, search. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is OFACScreen Sanctions Screening working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 258 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect OFACScreen Sanctions Screening?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does OFACScreen Sanctions Screening need an API key?
No. OFACScreen Sanctions Screening completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is OFACScreen Sanctions Screening?
It answers our handshake in 258 ms on average, which is faster than 65% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
