National Bank of Ukraine changes the rules for opening and closing the accounts of its clients
From the date of entry into force of the Law of Ukraine "On Payment Services" on the 1st of August 2022, Resolution of the NBU No. 138 of the 7th of July 2022 came into force as well. By this resolution the National Bank approved the changes to the instructions on the procedure for opening and closing accounts of its clients.
One of the most important changes was that from now on, according to this Resolution, when opening/closing an account, the clients will be checked for inclusion in the Unified Register of Debtors. If there is such a person in the register of debtors, the information must be sent in accordance with the procedure established by the legislation of Ukraine to the executive service body or private executor on the day of opening/closing of the account.
