SDN List

The Office of Foreign Assets Control publishes a list of individuals and companies subject to sanctions imposed by the agency. Sanctioned parties are known as “Specially Designated Nationals,” and the list, one of several sanctions lists issued by OFAC, is called the SDN List. Assets of individuals and companies on the SDN List are generally blocked.

CBP Reminds Trade of Self-Certification Requirements for Diamond Imports
February 29, 2024 by Noah Garfinkel|Customs

CBP reminded members of the trade community that starting March 1 the agency will require self-certification statements to be uploaded to the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) for non-industrial diamonds with a weight of 1.0 carat or greater, diamond jewelry and unsorted diamonds, in a CSMS message on Feb. 29. The Office of Foreign Assets Control banned Russian diamonds of those types in February to comply with an executive order signed in December that prohibits the importation of diamonds, fish and seafood if they were produced "wholly or in part" in Russia, CBP said (see 2402080081 and 2312260061).
