### Filtering VASPs

While searching, you can refine your results by applying filters:

* **By type**
  * **All**
  * **Individual** (for personal accounts)
  * **Entity** (for business accounts or institutions)
* **By status**
  * **All**
  * **Inactive**
  * **On hold**
  * **Dormant**
* **Sort by**
  * **Newest** (most recently added)
  * **Oldest** (earliest added)
    {% endstep %}
    {% endstepper %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Use the **status filter** to quickly locate VASPs requiring follow-up or additional review. By using Ospree’s search and filtering tools, you can efficiently manage VASP records and maintain a clear oversight of compliance status.
