Apple to Pay $466,912 Fine for Violating U.S. Sanctions



Apple has agreed to pay a $466,912 fine to settle apparent violations of the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Sanctions Regulations, according to the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

Apple appears to have violated section 598.203 of the FNKSR by dealing with SIS, d.o.o. ("SIS"), a Slovenian software company previously identified as a significant foreign narcotics trafficker.

On February 24, 2015, OFAC designated SIS and Savo Stjepanovic ("Stjepanovic"), a director and majority owner of SIS, and added them to the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons. OFAC’s public announcement of the designation included SIS’s address, registration number, and tax identification number, and further noted that SIS was linked to Stjepanovic.
