OFAC SETTLEMENT WITH ITALIAN COMPANY OVER ALLEGED IRAN SANCTIONS VIOLATIONS

On 26 March, OFAC announced that Nordgas Srl, a company located in Italy that produces and sells components for gas boiler systems and applications has agreed to pay $950,000 to settle its potential civil liability for apparent violations of the Iranian transactions and sanctions regulations.  Over an approximately 4-year period, Nordgas knowingly reexported 27 shipments of air pressure switches procured from a US company intended for as many as 10 customers in Iran and caused a US company to indirectly export its goods to Iran.
