The Central Bank of Russia recently plans to adjust the international transfer reporting framework, requiring commercial banks to report customer transactions involving crypto assets according to new standards.

According to the revised content, the scope of information that banks must report includes: counterparty identity, specific transfer channels, intermediary service provider identity, related fee details, transaction nature, and source of funds. These requirements apply to regular international remittance scenarios.

It is worth noting that buy and sell operations of cryptocurrencies, as well as digital assets such as digital rights and NFTs, will be included in a separate reporting process — no longer integrated into traditional transfer statistics, but filed separately according to transaction type. This layered management reflects regulatory authorities' detailed classification of digital asset categories.
