United Nations Consolidated Sanctions List
United Nations master list national customs services, banks and ports screen against.
No expert panel is in place to keep the list's Iranian entries current: the mandate expired on 26 September 2026 after Russia and China blocked renewal. The State Department says it has supplied fresh identifying details itself.

Iran Conflict 2026: Treasury names 10 Iran missile suppliersBackground
The Consolidated List gathers every individual and entity under Security Council sanctions into one file, which the United Nations Secretariat publishes in XML, HTML and PDF. The version dated 28 September 2026 held 736 individuals and 275 entities and superseded every earlier one. Customs services, banks and ports screen against it.
Each name's obligations come from the sanctions committee that listed it, not from the file. The Council states plainly that gathering the names in one place implies neither a single regime nor a single listing test. The permanent reference number carries the provenance: entries beginning IR were listed under the committee established by resolution 1737 of 2006, the Iran committee.
Identifying detail carries the whole value of the file, and it decays without maintenance. Where a committee has not established a field, the entry prints 'na'. For the Iranian names there is no panel of experts to correct or extend those fields: the Council never elected a chair to appoint one, and the mandate that would have authorised the work lapsed in September 2026. Screening against the United Nations record rather than the American one therefore means working from older data.
