In two weeks’ time, the OFSI Consolidated List of Asset Freeze Targets is closing. From 09:00 GMT on Wednesday 28 January 2026 the UK Sanctions List will be the only source for all UK sanctions designations. There will be no changes to the structure of the current UK Sanctions List.
You should use this period to prepare any systems for the formal closure of the OFSI Consolidated List.
The 17 December 2025 webinar to explain the move to a single list for UK sanctions designations is now available as a recording. Slides are available on the guidance page.
In December, the guidance page was also updated to include additional information:
- A section on ‘Russia: list of persons named in relation to financial and investment restrictions’
- A ‘Checklist’ of actions to take
We also published a new format guide for the UK Sanctions List, which includes mappings to the fields on the OFSI Consolidated List.
Communications:
The UK Sanctions List from FCDO lists which people, entities and ships are designated or specified under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018, and why.
The OFSI Consolidated List from HMT provides information relating to asset freeze and investment ban targets across all financial sanctions regimes implemented in the UK. This list will close at 09:00GMT on Wednesday 28 January 2026. Guidance has been published to help you prepare for the change.
