What it does

The actor loads the US Consolidated Screening List, the merged denied-party and sanctions dataset covering the Commerce Department (BIS), the Treasury Department (OFAC) and the State Department, applies the filters you pass as input, and writes one normalized record per matching entry to the run's dataset. Each raw source record is flattened: names and aliases, the exact source list, sanctions programs, all addresses, all government IDs (with issue and expiration dates), nationalities, citizenships, vessel and aircraft attributes, license policy and requirement, the Federal Register notice, and the official source URLs.

Missing source values are returned as null or an empty array/string exactly as the source provides them; nothing is invented. The dataset merges these lists: SDN, SSI, NS-MBS, CMIC, PLC and Capta (Treasury); Entity List, Denied Persons, Unverified, and Military End User (Commerce BIS); ITAR Debarred and Nonproliferation Sanctions (State).

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns the first 10 records whose name or alias contains "gazprom".

{
  "maxRecords": 10,
  "query": "gazprom"
}

Leave query empty to return every record on the list (subject to maxRecords). Every filter is optional; combine them to narrow the entries you collect.

Input reference

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
maxRecords	integer	no	10	Maximum records to collect. Free plans are capped at 10.
query	string	no	(empty)	Return records whose name or alias contains this text, for example gazprom, ivanov, wagner. Empty returns every record.
sourceList	string[]	no	(all)	Limit to specific lists, for example Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) - Treasury Department or Entity List (EL) - Bureau of Industry and Security. Empty includes all.
entityType	enum	no	(any)	One of Individual, Entity, Vessel, Aircraft. Empty keeps any type.

program	string	no	(any)	Sanctions or control program code, for example UKRAINE-EO13662, IRAN, CYBER2, 561-Related.

All filters are optional and combine with logical AND.

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and wait for it to finish, then read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~trade-screening-list-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":"gazprom","country":"RU","maxRecords":25}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~trade-screening-list-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"entityType":"Vessel","maxRecords":100}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/trade-screening-list-scraper \
  --input '{"query":"wagner","maxRecords":10}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object. Use offset and limit to page through large result sets. clean=true drops empty and internal fields.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge for it. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging further billable results.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 records per run. Upgrade for higher maxRecords.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The filter combination matched nothing. Loosen filters (remove country or program, or clear query). Zero-result runs are not charged.

Which lists are covered? The merged US Consolidated Screening List: SDN, SSI, NS-MBS, CMIC, PLC and Capta (Treasury/OFAC); Entity List, Denied Persons, Unverified and Military End User (Commerce BIS); ITAR Debarred and Nonproliferation Sanctions (State).

Can I screen a single name? Yes. Set query to the name or alias. Matching is case-insensitive and checks both the primary name and every alias.

Why are some fields empty strings instead of null? Vessel and remarks fields arrive as empty strings in the source for non-vessel entries. The actor preserves the source shape rather than reformatting it.

Is this an official government tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with the US government. It reads only the publicly available Consolidated Screening List published by trade.gov. Use it in accordance with the source terms.
