The NBU cancelled the limit on purchase of foreign currency and precious metals

FLIFI members welcome steps of the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) aimed at currency market liberalization and foreign currency control relaxation, namely recent adoption of NBU Resolution #125 "On Approval of Amendments to the Regulation on Safeguards and Procedures for Certain FX Transactions", dated October 29, 2019. By adopting this Resolution, the NBU cancels a daily limit of UAH 150 thousands set on purchase of foreign currency and precious metals through the cash desk of a bank, a financial institution or via online banking systems.

Moreover, the requirement for individuals to submit documents to banks confirming the grounds for transactions in the purchase of non-cash foreign currency is also terminated.
