The Banking Control Commission of Lebanon (BCCL) issued on November 30, 2019 Memo No. 1/2019 in which it requested from currency exchange bureaus across the country to submit on a weekly basis a list of all FX operations executed by currency. The BCCL further specified that operations exceeding the $10 thousand mark should be registered on an Excel sheet detailing the name of the related customer, the date of the transaction, its size, the reason behind it, the source of the money, and its beneficiary. This Excel sheet should be relayed to the BCCL every Monday, always according to the memo. In addition, currency exchange bureaus should notify the BCCL in writing in the event no transaction surpassing the $10 thousand bar was recorded during the week.
