Further to the Circular Ref. No. TED/FEM/FPC/GEN/01/011 of November 30, 2020, on the above subject, we wish to reiterate and clarify to All International Money Transfer Operators (IMTO) the following;
IMTO’s must ensure that all funds in favour of beneficiaries/recipients in Nigeria be deposited into the Agent Banks’ correspondent account.
Agent Banks (Deposit Money Banks) in Nigeria will be responsible for final payment to beneficiaries/recipients either in foreign currency cash (USD) or into the beneficiaries’/recipients’ domiciliary account in Nigeria.
The mode of payment either in cash or transfer is at the sole discretion of the beneficiaries/recipients.
Please ensure strict compliance and be guided accordingly.
