Due diligence

In the world of international sanctions and complex ship operations, a properly conducted examination can save you from unpleasant consequences and financial losses. Interlegal offers a ship due diligence service – a comprehensive check of the vessel, its owners and managers for compliance with international sanctions.

Our experts will analyse the available official and unofficial information about the vessel in the following areas:

History of commercial activities: Analysis of ship calls to closed ports, AIS data, consistency of positions to identify possible risks.
Ownership and management structure: Verification of links with sanctioned persons and companies.
Sanctions lists: Checking the presence of the vessel or its owners on the sanctions lists of Ukraine, the US, the UN, and the EU.
State registers: Information from the official registers of the countries where the vessel is planning to visit or where it will conduct commercial activities.
Unofficial sources: Search for unofficial blacklists of offending vessels that can be used by law enforcement agencies.

After the verification, our clients receive an independent expert opinion on the sanctions risks of the vessel, a professional forecast for transactions with this asset and recommendations to minimise risks.

For any business related to a vessel, the importance of a spot examination for compliance with sanctions is obvious. Our due diligence services will provide you with peace of mind and confidence in choosing the right direction for your business.
