Due to governmental regulations, the IAQG Training website is not allowed to accept payments from countries, banks, or other entities covered by U.S. government and/or international trade sanctions or similar orders.
Prohibited Countries
Currently, government sanctions/restrictions prevent us from accepting payments (whether by bank or credit card) from the following countries and regions/territories:
- Cuba
- Iran
- North Korea
- Russia
- The Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions of Ukraine
If you attempt to create an invoice or send a payment from one of these countries/regions, the website will block the transaction. This list is subject to change at any time through governmental action outside of our control.
Prohibited Banks
The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) has also restricted payments from certain banks. These banks are listed below:
- CiBanco S.A.
- Intercam Banco S.A.
- Vector Casa de Bolsa, S.A. de C.V.
This list is subject to change at any time. In the event your bank is blocked by government financial restrictions, affected individuals/organizations would need to arrange payment through a different financial institution.
In addition, the IAQG Training website is required to restrict payments for entities listed on government-provided "Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons Lists." If someone's account details are identical or nearly identical to an entity on this government provided list, website personnel must perform a full manual review, and during this time your account may be temporarily unavailable.
Although we are legally required to comply with these governmental requirements, we do still apologize for the inconvenience these payment restrictions may cause.
