Bad master data
Wrong VAT numbers, outdated addresses, dissolved companies still live in your books — errors that break invoices, tax filings and trust.
Compliance & due-diligence screening
Know exactly who you do business with — before it costs you.
Sanctinel screens every customer and supplier against sanctions, PEP, insolvency, ownership and adverse-media risk — resolves them in a 32-million-company European database, validates their VAT ID and master data, and keeps watching continuously. Right inside your ERP.

The hidden risk
Your customer and supplier data is quietly going out of date.
A supplier gets sanctioned overnight. A customer slides into insolvency. A VAT ID silently turns invalid. An owner three levels up lands on a list. One-time, manual checks see none of it — and every stale record is a fine, a liability or a bad debt waiting to happen.
🕸️
Hidden sanctions & ownership exposure
A partner isn't on any list — but its beneficial owner is. Direct-name checks miss indirect exposure entirely.
⏳
Checks that go stale
You screened them at onboarding. That was months ago. Lists change daily; a one-off check proves nothing about today.
How Sanctinel works
Resolve. Screen. Monitor.
Three automated steps — from a messy partner name to a continuously watched, audit-proof decision.
01
Resolve
Even a partial or misspelled name resolves to the real legal entity in our 32-million-company European database — with jurisdiction, registration and LEI.
02
Screen
One screen checks sanctions, PEP, adverse media, insolvency and debarment — plus the ownership graph and the VAT ID — while AI filters out the false positives.
03
Monitor
Every partner stays under continuous watch. The moment something changes — a new listing, an insolvency, an invalid VAT ID — you're alerted in-app, by webhook or email.
One screen, every risk
Everything you need to clear a business partner.
From sanctions to VAT validation — the checks your compliance and finance teams run, unified into one continuous screen.
🛡️
Sanctions & watchlists
EU, US (OFAC/CSL), UN, UK (FCDO), Switzerland (SECO) and Canada (SEMA) — matched across aliases and transliterations.
🏛️
PEP screening
Politically exposed persons and their close associates — the heightened-risk relationships regulators expect you to catch.
📰
Adverse media
AI-assisted screening of news and web sources for fraud, corruption, litigation and reputational red flags.
⚖️
Insolvency monitoring
Official announcements plus live research surface proceedings early — with court and case number — to protect your credit risk.
⛔
Procurement debarment
Exclusion and debarment lists that bar a partner from public contracts — flagged before you commit.
🕸️
Ownership graph
Beneficial-ownership chains reveal indirect exposure — when a partner is connected to a sanctioned entity, not just directly listed.
🧾
VAT ID validation
Live VIES checks confirm a VAT ID is valid and its registered name matches — bad tax data caught at the source.
🎯
Master-data quality
Addresses, status and registration checked against official registers, so stale or wrong company data is flagged automatically.
Data coverage
Deep European coverage, global watchlists.
A 32-million-company base across nine European jurisdictions, screened against six sanctions regimes and every major watchlist.

Native integrations
Screening lives inside the systems you already use.
No second tool, no copy-and-paste. Sanctinel checks the moment a customer, supplier or order is created — the result appears in the record, risky transactions are stopped, and every partner is re-screened continuously so your data stays current. For example:
BC
Business Central
Checking directly in the customer & supplier master data — hit in the record, approval is stopped on a sanction.
NAV
Dynamics NAV
For existing NAV installations — same engine, same audit-proof evidence.
Od
Odoo
Screening directly in the sales and purchasing flow — partners and products.
SAP
SAP
Checking in the business-partner master record and before order release.
Sh
Shopify
New customers and orders are checked automatically — risky orders flagged before you ship.
SF
Salesforce
Leads, accounts and contacts checked on creation — hits directly in the CRM.
1 A customer, supplier or order is created
→
2 The hit appears directly in the record
→
3 Approval is stopped on a sanction — after that, monitoring continues automatically

Screen “Rosneft Trading SA” as a new supplier for me.
⚙ Sanctinel · screen_partner called
🔴 Hit. “Rosneft Trading SA” is on the EU and US sanctions list (100%). Its parent company Rosneft is also listed — indirect exposure. I would not enter into this business relationship.
Continuous monitoring
Catch the problem the day it appears — not at the next audit.
Screening once is a snapshot. Sanctinel re-checks your entire customer and supplier base on a schedule and raises an early warning the moment risk appears.
Alerts in-app · webhook · email🛡️
Newly sanctioned supplier
A supplier you've worked with for years lands on a list overnight — you know before the next order goes out.
⚖️
Customer sliding into insolvency
An insolvency filing surfaces early, with court and case number, so you can protect the receivable in time.
🧾
VAT ID gone invalid
A VAT ID that quietly stopped being valid is flagged before it breaks your next invoice or tax filing.

Frequently asked questions
Does Sanctinel replace your own review or legal advice?
No. Sanctinel is a screening aid and provides an indication — the final decision and approval remain with you. The tool takes the search and documentation work off your hands but does not replace legal advice. The responsible authority for authorizations in Germany remains the BAFA.
What happens when a hit is found?
You immediately see a clear notice with name, source and match probability. On a sanctions hit, document release is blocked until an employee makes a deliberate decision — nothing is rejected automatically. You stay in control, but no one delivers to the wrong party by accident anymore.
Which lists are checked — and how up to date are they?
Business partners: sanctions and blocking lists (EU, US, UN, UK, Switzerland, Canada and many more), PEP, procurement debarments, insolvency proceedings (official announcements + live research), FATF and EU country risk, corporate ownership (50% rule), VAT ID validation and adverse media from the web, news and social sources. Goods: dual-use, military goods and embargo lists. New sources are added continuously — and Sanctinel re-checks your partners automatically again and again, not just once.
Do I also have to check existing customers and suppliers?
Yes — and that's exactly what Sanctinel takes off your hands. Not just new entries, but your entire existing base is checked and continuously monitored. That way you also notice when a long-standing partner newly appears on a list.
Does it work with our ERP?
We start with Business Central, Dynamics NAV and Odoo — there the check runs directly in your master data and documents, without a second piece of software and without a lengthy IT project. You connect any other system via our interface.
What does Sanctinel cost?
The quick check on this page is free and requires no sign-up. We bill the ERP version transparently per environment — talk to us for a quote that fits your company size.
Is our data secure?
Yes. Processing is GDPR-compliant and tenant-separated, and every check is logged. Files uploaded for document screening are processed only for the check and not stored permanently. More on this in the privacy policy.
