In response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, on 6 April 2022 the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury added Bulavin to its list of persons sanctioned pursuant to Executive Order 14024.[9] On 25 February 2023, the European Union imposed sanctions against Bulavin due to his efforts to undermine trade and customs restrictions by securing parallel imports into Russia, and for exercising direct authority over customs processes and imposing Russia's customs code in the illegally annexed territories of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia.[10]
