What regulators expect - risk, controls, and record-keeping
Sanctions Checklist includes a dedicated PEP database sourced from Wikidata, covering nearly 300,000 politically exposed persons worldwide. PEP screening is a key component of anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) compliance, and is widely required under Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations.
PEP results are toggled separately from sanctions results, so you can run a combined or standalone PEP check depending on your workflow. PEP matches are clearly distinguished from sanctions designations in your search results.
From a single counterparty check to organisation-wide rollout, Sanctions Checklist supports teams that need a consistent, documented screening process.
Screen vendors, suppliers and service providers before engagement
Support donor, grants and cross-border partner due diligence
Screen vessels, counterparties and trading partners across major sanctions regimes
Sanctions Checklist searches across international sanctions and related risk lists in a single query, including DFAT, OFAC SDN, OFAC Consolidated, UNSC, EU, UK, Swiss SECO, Canadian sanctions, BIS restricted-party lists, DoD research-security lists, Japan End User, Singapore MAS, sanctioned countries, and Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) data.
The first 5 searches are free after sign-in. After that, subscribe to Standard ($59/mo) or Professional ($220/mo) from the pricing page for ongoing searches, unlimited Checklist Reports, and monitoring.
Sanctions Checklist is built for research institutions, exporters and cross-border businesses, professional services firms, procurement and third-party risk teams, compliance and legal teams, and NGOs that need a consistent way to screen parties, investigate matches and document decisions.
You can enable monitoring on checklist entities (or the whole checklist). Entities are rescreened daily across all sanctions lists, and you receive email notifications when a sanctions status changes.
Search query text is not retained as a user-facing search history feature. Sanctions Checklist supports Google and Microsoft sign-in, does not sell data for unrelated commercial purposes, and can delete account data on request.
We built Sanctions Checklist for teams that need a consistent way to screen counterparties and keep a clear record of the work, especially where screening sits across large teams and decentralised workflows.
The platform is operated by Viken Link Pty Ltd. It is designed and hosted in Australia, and used by institutions, businesses and individual researchers worldwide.
