Payments involving Russia, Belarus, or non-government controlled areas and regions of Ukraine.
The ongoing unstable situation caused by the war in Ukraine and the associated financial sanctions are making it difficult for us to help our customers with their payments involving Russia, Belarus or the non-government controlled areas and regions of Ukraine. We have decided that Danske Bank will not process any payments involving Russia, Belarus or the non-government controlled areas and regions of Ukraine for the time being, subject to limited exceptions.What does this mean for our customers?
Any direct or indirect commercial activity involving Russia, Belarus and the non-government controlled areas and regions of Ukraine is not supported by Danske Bank. This is subject to limited exceptions – for example, humanitarian aid.
We continue to monitor developments closely and are working hard to adjust our support as the circumstances change.
