Improve Compliance with International Trade Regulations and Guard Against Conducting Business with Unauthorized Organizations, Countries or People

In today’s trade environment, companies must take steps to guard against conducting business with unauthorized organizations, countries or people. Non-compliance can lead to penalties, fines or even imprisonment. Descartes Denied Parties Screening™ solution helps you confirm that you are working with non-prohibited entities.

When integrated with other Descartes customs filing and compliance solutions, you can request denied parties screening whenever you present a profile or shipment. Descartes Denied Parties Screening also offers a real-time XML interface, which can exist as a fully-integrated component of your in-house documentation and compliance applications.

Descartes Denied Parties Screening checks the parties on your export or import transaction against denied parties’ lists maintained by U.S. governmental agencies and law enforcement and commerce control agencies of other governments. This check can be done in real-time, on a transaction by transaction basis, or as a batch process against your existing client/ supplier database.
