From June 1, Rosfinmonitoring will be able to block suspicious transfers to the card for up to 10 days, and in special cases — up to 30, so you need to know which transfers can be suspended. This was announced on June 22 by an analyst at the Bank's financial marketplace.<url> Erania Bochkina.

"If Rosfinmonitoring suspects the "integrity" of the transfer to the card, it may decide to suspend it. The specific threshold amounts that will lead to the blocking have not been indicated," she told the Prime news agency.

Bochkina clarified that frequent small receipts, transfers of large amounts without supporting documents, or other atypical transactions may fall under suspicion. These measures to control banking transactions are primarily aimed at combating fraud and money laundering obtained illegally.

When Rosfinmonitoring makes a decision to block, it immediately sends it to the bank where the accounts are serviced. After that, the bank is obliged to temporarily freeze transactions for a specified period and inform the client about it. The citizen needs to send a request to find out the reasons for the blocking. When blocking, the client should contact the bank soon, the expert noted.

Bochkina advised not to accept money from strangers without a clear purpose of the transfer, but to clarify the purpose of the payment during incoming and outgoing transactions in order to avoid blocking. It is also worth monitoring the regularity and volume of transfers, as sudden spikes may arouse suspicion. Do not participate in questionable schemes, even if you are simply asked to "transfer money further."

Denis Kravchenko, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Economic Policy, said on May 26 that the essence of the law on tightening control over card-to-card transfers, which will enter into force on June 1, 2025, is to counter illegal income. He clarified that ordinary citizens have nothing to worry about, as they do not conduct illegal business.
