DUSHANBE, February 3, 3016, Asia-Plus — Starting from February 2, remittances that will be sent to local banks in Tajikistan in the Russian rubles (RR) will be given out in the somoni (TJS), according to the National Bank of Tajikistan (NBT).

Tajik central bank reportedly issued this order for local lending agencies for the purpose of supporting the national currency, the somoni.

An official source at the NBT has noted that the order does not apply to remittances made in other foreign currency.

“The RR remittances will be given out in the somoni if they are made without opening a bank account,” the source added.

Today, an official exchange rate of the Russian ruble against the somoni was 1:0.1028.
