The bank confirmed that exchange requests continue to be accepted through approved centers, noting that no decision has been issued to extend the deadline so far. It added that the old currency will remain legal tender until July 30, 2026, while it can still be exchanged at the Central Bank for five years after it ceases to be valid for circulation, under procedures to be announced later.

The bank also called on citizens to rely only on official sources for information and avoid rumors, stressing that the exchange process is part of a plan to modernize the monetary system and strengthen confidence in the financial sector.
