Think Tank Insights:

  • As of Sept. 8, 2020 The Unit­ed Nations is the only gov­ern­ing body that pub­lish­es the full set of lists in the fol­low­ing lan­guages: Ara­bic, Chi­nese, Russ­ian, Span­ish, French. 

  • OFAC, when able, pub­lish­es names in the fol­low­ing lan­guages: Ara­bic, Chi­nese, Cyril­lic, Japan­ese, Kore­an, and Latin

  • EU con­sol­i­dat­ed list does not pro­vide the full set of data in all the EU mem­ber state lan­guages. How­ev­er, if avail­able, they do pro­vide native languages. 

  • Best Practices/​Tips and Tricks: 

    • Pre­vent your cus­tomer ser­vice team from chang­ing address­es at time of order entry. 

    • If you will use intl. address ver­sion, it will be a sig­nif­i­cant change to your busi­ness prac­tice to get the Eng­lish trans­la­tion in the system.
