With State Gazette, issue 66 dated August 1, 2023, an amendment to Article 270 of the Labor Code has been adopted. The new paragraph 4 requires employers with 100 or more employees (except for individuals with whom a labor contract for short-term seasonal agricultural work has been concluded under Article 114a) to pay labor remuneration only through bank transfer or deposit into an account specified by the employee in a bank within the country.

This obligation for employers is effective from September 1, 2023.
