Ed. Note: if you’re new to TURBOFAC, please take note that the text string filtration function generally shouldn’t be used for terms such as “ordinarily resident,” “causing” or “new debt”. For research on the meaning of words and phrases such as those, i.e. terms central to the key legal issues in sanctions law that appear on a cross-programmatic basis, you’re typically better off locating and checking the appropriate box in the “Key Legal Issues” search category, which will limit the results to those that have been manually assessed as being relevant for the interpretation of the terms at issue.
Try typing your search term (“ordinarily resident,” “new debt,” or something else) in the “Find a Search Filter” box at the top of the page, and the corresponding “Key Legal Issues” check box will pop up instantly, if one exists. Once you check the box (e.g. “new debt,” with ~55 results), you can always use the text string filtration function to further refine your search (e.g. by typing “invoice” and narrowing the ~55 results to ~10).
Note in addition that the same applies to text string searches such as “14071” (if you’re looking for items related to EO 14071). By typing “14071” in the “Find a Search Filter” field up top, you will be able to instantly narrow the results down to items manually assessed as relating to EO 14071. Ditto terms such as “515.204” or “Iran General License G” (try the “Discrete Legal Provision” search category).

"We also sell beverage concentrates to a local bottler authorized to produce and sell Coca-Cola and certain other of our finished products in Sudan. We do so under a license from OFAC which is renewed annually at OFAC’s discretion. We do not have any ownership interest in this bottler. Between 2002 and January 2004, our regional field operations provided certain financial support to this bottler principally to enable it to purchase new beverage manufacturing equipment and to upgrade its glass bottle inventory to increase the bottler’s competitiveness in the marketplace. Following an internal review of these actions in light of the terms of our OFAC license and the Sudan sanction regulations, we made detailed self-disclosure to OFAC and reached a civil...
