They are as follows: 1) E-money shall be only issued by banks, whereas non-banking institutions (legal entities) will be able to act as sales agents and handle with e-money-involving operations. 2) E-money will be issued only on an advance-payment basis. 3) Issuing banks shall accept the e-money or exchange it for paper money at par value on demand of the e-money holder. 4) The issuing bank shall demand for the e-money purchaser’s IDcard in case the latter purchases a bit over $1000. A single transaction should not exceed $5178. Banking services related to e-money will be exempt of VAT. Respective amendments have been introduced into all the applicable legislation.
