What the listing means in practice

For charterers and traders, insurers, ports and banks — per authority that lists this ship. Plain-English summaries of the legal texts; the texts prevail.

European Union — binds: Anyone in the EU, EU nationals and EU companies anywhere, and any business done wholly or partly in the EU.

Charterers, traders: Buying, selling, chartering, operating or crewing the ship, ship-to-ship transfers with it and using its services are prohibited.
Insurers: Financing and financial assistance — including insurance and reinsurance — and brokering for the ship are prohibited.
Ports: No access to EU ports, anchorages or locks; no bunkering, supplies, crew changes or cargo handling; no EU flag registration. Narrow exceptions (emergency, safety, humanitarian).
Banks, payments: Not an asset freeze in itself, but financing and payments for prohibited services are caught. A freeze applies if a listed person owns the ship.

United Kingdom — binds: Anyone in the UK or its waters, and UK nationals and UK companies anywhere. Each listing states which ship measures apply.

Charterers, traders: Chartering or operating a specified ship, and services for its purchase, sale or transfer, are offences (since 20 May 2026).
Insurers: Providing financial services or funds — including insurance and reinsurance — and brokering for a specified ship is an offence.
Ports: No UK port access; port, movement and detention directions possible; UK registration refused or terminated.
Banks, payments: Not an asset freeze in itself, but financial services for the ship are prohibited. If a designated person owns it, it is frozen.

United States — binds: US persons (citizens, residents, US companies and their foreign branches, anyone in the US). Non-US parties face secondary-sanctions risk.

Charterers, traders: US persons may not charter, buy, sell, operate or otherwise deal in the blocked vessel without an OFAC licence; non-US parties risk secondary sanctions.
Insurers: US persons may not underwrite, reinsure or broker cover for it; non-US insurers can face secondary-sanctions risk.
Ports: Blocked property coming into the US is blocked; OFAC tells port agents, operators and terminals to refuse service to sanctioned vessels.
Banks, payments: US banks must block or reject payments involving the blocked interest; foreign banks risk sanctions for significant transactions (Russia programme).
