Which screening lists are owned by DDTC?

• A. Debarred List and U.S. Arms Embargoes in Effect List and United Nations Sanctioned Persons (Arms Embargo) List
• B. SDN List and Embargoed Country List
• C. Entity List and Unverified List
• D. DPL and Unverified List

Answer: (A)

Screening for defense trade compliance relies on the specific lists that the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) maintains to vet parties before licensing or transferring defense articles. The DDTC’s screening sets include the Debarred List, which identifies individuals or entities barred from defense-related transactions; the U.S. Arms Embargoes in Effect List, which flags current U.S. arms embargoes; and the United Nations Sanctioned Persons (Arms Embargo) List, which reflects UN-imposed arms embargoes. These lists are maintained by DDTC and are used to ensure compliance with U.S. and UN sanctions in ITAR-related activities. Other lists in use for export controls come from different agencies (for example, OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals list or BIS lists like the Entity List, Unverified List, and Denied Persons List) and are not DDTC-owned.
