Why Working with CIS Teams Is So Complex Right Now

Transfers to Russian bank cards are blocked

Russian tax residents can't be paid in cryptocurrency

Withdrawals to unverified Russian bank accounts aren't allowed

If your company violates sanctions, you face serious consequences – including criminal prosecution

If your partner violates sanctions, you can be held liable too – the same consequences apply to you

If you work through an intermediary that ignores sanctions rules, you're still legally responsible
