The Lebanese Central Bank issued on January 21, 2026 basic decision 13798 under basic circular no. 172 to banks and financial institutions where it requested banks to ensure their clients fill a Cash Transaction Slip (CTS) whenever a cash deposit that is equal to or exceeds $10,000 (or the counter value in other currencies) is made per day. The CTS would then be crosschecked with the Know-Your-Customer form to make sure they are aligned. It is worth noting that this circular is part of the Central Bank’s efforts to combat money laundering and terrorism financing activities.
