Dear Partners,

In connection with the upcoming introduction of the euro as the official currency in the country, starting from 01.01.2026, we would like to inform you about some important requirements that should be fulfilled in the last working days before the change.

The POS terminals will be temporarily closed from 21:00 on 31.12.2025 to 01:00 on 01.01.2026.

• In your last working day, the terminal must send an automatic daily report. If necessary, sending the transaction file can also be done manually by a responsible employee in the facility.
• If your last business day is 12/31/2025, you must send the daily report manually no later than 8:45 p.m. on that day

No transactions will be accepted after the report is sent until the Bank's systems are fully restored after 1:00 a.m. on 01/01/2026.

It is mandatory that the POS terminals remain connected to the power supply after the last working day.

This is necessary both to ensure that the daily statements can be sent automatically and that the new euro parameters can be received after 01.01.2026.

In the event that the steps above cannot be completed and you experience difficulties in the process of manually sending a file before and after the Euro conversion, assistance can be obtained from the Bank's Contact Centre on 0700 117 17 (option 4 for merchants with POS).

Please ensure that all reporting procedures are completed in a timely manner to ensure a smooth transition to working with the single European currency.
