The Central Bank of the Russian Federation, by its order, for the period of validity of the temporary procedure for operations with cash currency, limited the issuance of cash currency to legal entities that are residents of the Russian Federation and individual entrepreneurs.
Until September 9, they will be able to receive cash in US dollars, Japanese yen, pounds sterling and euros up to $ 5 thousand, and only to pay for expenses on foreign business trips. Only in special cases, at the request of the bank to the regulator, this amount can be increased.
All other currencies can be received by resident companies and individual entrepreneurs in cash on the grounds provided for by law, without restrictions at the market rate on the day of issue.
Earlier, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation explained that from March 9, Russians will not be able to buy cash dollars and euros even for trips abroad. “While the temporary procedure for cash transactions is in effect, you will not be able to purchase cash currency. But you can pay with the Mir card and withdraw cash from it in the currency of the country of your trip where the Mir card is accepted. These are Turkey, Vietnam, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, South Ossetia and Abkhazia,” the regulator said.
