Dear Customers,

Thank you very much for banking with SMBC Trust Bank PRESTIA.

Due to the current economic sanctions against Russia and Belarus (*), transactions with banks subject to economic sanctions are prohibited, and various regulations have become very strict, and some banks have suspended the handling of overseas remittances to Russia and Belarus themselves.

There is a high possibility that the bank relaying the remittance will inquire about the purpose of the remittance and ask for documents related to the transaction, which may result in delays, refunds, or failure to receive the funds.

In light of these recent developments, we will stop accepting new overseas remittance registrations to Russia and Belarus from September 2024.

We appreciate your understanding.
