21. Limitations on cash payments

The limitation on cash payments has been installed in the anti-money laundering legislation[1]. The limit on cash payments does not apply in case of payment by bank transfer, bank card or bank cheque.  

It’s important to note that the term ‘cash’ doesn’t only cover banknotes and coins, it also covers cheques, promissory notes, money orders, negotiable instruments etc.[2]
