12 Aug 2026 Rice Lake Weighing Systems, Inc.Scale manufacturer Rice Lake liable for Italian subsidiary's indirect exports to Iran USABreaches of sanctions and embargoes €52,632

In eight instances in 2019–2021, the Italian subsidiary Dini Argeo supplied weighing equipment worth around 121,500 USD to a trader in the UAE, although it knew that the goods would be passed on to a former direct Iranian customer. The parent company had passed on the Iran ban only by an English-language e-mail without explanation; the US Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) considered it a non-egregious, voluntarily self-disclosed case.

What organisations can take from it

Implement sanctions requirements at foreign subsidiaries in an understandable way, in the local language and with training for all relevant employees – indirect supplies via traders are also prohibited.

Relevance to training and awareness

Sanctions training for foreign subsidiaries, indirect supplies via third countries

Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
