On Russian crude transshipment, the $60 cap is not advice — it is a red line. The G7 price cap on seaborne Russian crude holds at $60/bbl; above that, Western-provided insurance, reinsurance and dollar settlement channels shut. SNSUC has encoded this line into its automated screening; any Urals quote passes this gate first.

The three documents are the operational keystone: the invoice price, the freight manifest's CIF build-up, and the load-port certificate's batch and timing must corroborate each other. What supervisors check is whether the batch you sold exceeded $60, and the only basis is whether these three files close. If any one fails to match, the whole cargo's compliant identity is in question.

One often-overlooked point is the transshipment structure itself. SNSUC acts as an offshore intermediary; title passes through an offshore SPV, and the offshore resale must run in the same bank and same currency, with the remittance note marked "special offshore resale" and reported to SAFE within five business days. This is not optional — it is a hard requirement under Article 14 of the FX guidance.

The practical advice is blunt: turn the three-document field mapping into a structured template, auto-compare price, quantity and batch number, and block any deviation beyond threshold. Manual checking is too slow and leaks exactly when you are busiest. Compliance-first is not a slogan; it is the precondition for the next order.
