To curb the circulation of dirty money, foreign exchange offices will not accept cash exchanges over 1 million lek. Above this value, transactions will only be allowed through bank accounts.
Cash transactions exceeding 1 million lek are not permitted in exchange offices, whether conducted in a single exchange or in several exchanges connected to each other.
The rule set by the Central Bank has entered into force and aims to control and combat unjustified money, and people or businesses who want to exchange amounts beyond 1 million lek must declare them through bank accounts or payment accounts.
The regulation also affects individuals who want to obtain foreign exchange licenses, who must have capital over 5 million lek, up from the 2.5 million required today.
Also, according to the amendments, the maximum fines for various violations are increased from 100 thousand to 1 million lek. The license suspension is extended to three months, with a complete ban on activity during this period.
With the new rules, entities that suspend activity for periods of 1–3 months will have to officially notify and follow a special documentation procedure, while the possibility of resuming the license review with new documents within 30 days is also provided.
