Tajikistan allows local banks to halt Russia’s “Mir” payment system
WORLD 28 September 2022 - 16:15
Banks of Tajikistan can independently decide on whether to use cards of the Russian payment system "Mir" or not.
Refusal to interact with Russia’s National System of Payment Cards (NSPK) is subject to their direct competence, RBC reports, citing the statement of the Consumer Protection Division of the National Bank of Tajikistan.
“Today, banks independently decide on further cooperation with NSPK and acceptance of ‘Mir’ cards in their terminal network. Regarding the issues of servicing ‘Mir’ cards, it is necessary to contact the banks themselves directly,” the Central Bank of Tajikistan said.
The Central Bank also noted that several Tajik banks until recently continued to interact with Mir cards.
“According to a bilateral agreement between the Tajik operator of the National Payment Systems Korti Milli and the Russian NSPK Mir, as well as based on agreements signed with Tajik banks, Mir cardholders were served in the terminal network of some banks in Tajikistan, including Amonatbank and Dushanbe City Bank,” the representatives of the regulator concluded.
Dushanbe City Bank suspended the service of Mir cards on September 24 due to "technical problems" in the operation of the Russian payment system. Now they are not served in ATMs and POS terminals of the second largest bank of Tajikistan in terms of the number of cardholders.
