Targets foreign individuals and entities involved in international narcotics trafficking, from significant foreign narcotics traffickers and their organizations to persons engaged in or supporting the global illicit drug trade, together with those who materially assist them or act on their behalf. Property of designated persons under US jurisdiction is blocked, and US persons are generally prohibited from transactions with them. Designation under some authorities also suspends a natural person's entry into the United States. Some persons receive non-blocking sanctions instead, such as a prohibition on US financial institutions making loans or extending credit to them.
