Sanctions Tracker
The NK PRO Sanctions Tracker is a live, searchable database of all mentions of DPRK-related sanctions information contained within U.N. Panel of Experts reports — covering entities, individuals, vessels, and aircraft.
Built directly from U.N. Panel of Experts reports, the Sanctions Tracker gives compliance teams, researchers, and enforcement analysts a single, searchable interface for all DPRK-related sanctions information — entities, individuals, vessels, and aircraft — without having to comb through lengthy UN documents.
Designations are searchable by name, alias, date, and designation type. Each entry links directly to the underlying Panel of Experts report where the mention appears. Full designation history is preserved for each entity, giving users a longitudinal view of how a target’s profile has evolved across reporting cycles.
Cross-referenceable with the Company Database (entity ownership), NK Marine Tracker (vessel status), and KCNA Watch (media mentions). Data is exportable to CSV for compliance system integration.

How our clients use it
Social proof
As someone who has followed and assessed developments in North Korea for many years, I have found NK PRO to be the best source for keeping me current on events as well as in assisting my research on economic and sanctions matters.

Former Member, UN Panel of Experts on DPRK Sanctions
NK PRO is the go-to resource for anyone doing serious work on North Korea sanctions. The breadth of its databases, combined with the quality of its analysis, makes it indispensable for tracking how Pyongyang continues to evade international pressure.
