Sanction Name
Sanctioned By U.S. Department of State
Date of Sanction 10/09/2020
Reason for Sanction Publicly designated due to his involvement in significant corruption. In his official capacity as Director of Passport and Visas at the Liberian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Andrew Wonplo, at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 2018 to 2019, Mr. Wonplo was involved in passport fraud that undermined the rule of law, reduced the Liberian public’s faith in their government’s management of identification and travel documents, and compromised the integrity and security of immigration processes.
Scope of Sanction This designation is made under Section 7031(c) of the Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2020 (Div. G, P.L. 116-94). Under Section 7031(c), once the Secretary of State designates officials of foreign governments for their involvement, directly or indirectly, in significant corruption, those individuals and their immediate family members are ineligible for entry into the United States. The law also requires the Secretary of State to either publicly or privately designate such officials and their immediate family members. Accordingly, in addition to Mr. Wonplo, his spouse, Dennice Wonplo, and their minor children have been designated.
