Why should I check the Consolidated List?

Checking the Consolidated List before dealing with an individual or entity is an obvious precaution you can take to ensure you do not deal with individuals or entities who are subject to sanctions. By subscribing to receive updates on the Consolidated List will help you identify existing customers or counterparties. This will enable you to take immediate action such as freezing assets and notifying authorities. Dealing with an individual or entity that appears on the Consolidated List is a serious criminal offence with penalties including up to ten years in prison for individuals and significant fines for individuals and bodies corporate.

Targeted financial sanctions apply to listed individuals and entities, prohibiting them from:

  • directly or indirectly making an asset available to, or for the benefit of, a listed person or entity
  • using or dealing with assets owned or controlled by a listed individual or entity, commonly referred to as an 'asset freeze'.

An 'asset' encompasses any type of property, whether tangible or intangible, movable or immovable, however acquired.

What should I do if I find a match on the Consolidated List?

If you identify a match on the Consolidated List, seek legal advice before proceeding with any dealings involving that person or entity, or any assets owned or controlled by them.

What if I suspect that I hold an asset owned or controlled by an individual or entity on the Consolidated List?

If you are, or think you may be, using or dealing with an asset that is owned or controlled by a designated person or entity (that is, you are holding a freezable or controlled asset), you must hold (or 'freeze') the asset and inform the ASO by emailing asset.freezing@dfat.gov.au and the AFP through the Report a crime form as soon as possible.

Asset holders are required by law to provide the AFP with specific information about freezable or controlled assets (regulation 42 of the Charter of the United Nations (Dealing with Assets) Regulations 2008 (Cth) and regulation 24 of the Autonomous Sanctions Regulations 2011 (Cth)).

Does the Consolidated List include individuals or entities listed under other countries' laws?

The Consolidated List only lists individuals and entities listed under Australian sanctions laws. It does not include individuals or entities listed or prescribed under other Australian laws, or foreign sanctions laws, If you think your activities might be affected by other Australian or international laws you should seek legal advice.
