Sanctions Screening MCP Server

MCP server for OFAC, EU, UK, and UN sanctions screening. Hosted on MCPize. Enables AI agents to perform compliance checks directly - essential for fintech AML/KYC workflows, payment processors, and any business handling international transactions.

What It Does

Sanctions screening is legally required for financial services. This MCP server wraps consolidated sanctions lists into agent-callable tools:

  • OFAC - US Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (SDN list)
  • EU Consolidated List - European Union sanctions
  • UK Sanctions List - HM Treasury / OFSI
  • UN Security Council - United Nations consolidated sanctions

Business Operator Use Cases

Limitations

  • 0 stars, brand new - Created July 22, 2026. Not proven.
  • Hosted on MCPize - Third-party dependency. Data goes through their infra.
  • No watchlist monitoring - One-time screening only. No ongoing monitoring.
  • Regulatory gap - Sanctions screening results must be reviewed by humans for regulatory compliance. Agent-only screening is insufficient for audit.

Operator Verdict

★★★ Critical capability, watch for maturity. Sanctions compliance is non-negotiable for fintech. This fills a real gap in the MCP ecosystem. The hosted MCPize model reduces setup friction but introduces third-party risk. Wait for adoption signals (>20 stars, first production deployment report) before relying on it for actual compliance workflows.
